Making Masks ~ Wintertime! from Life in the Scrapatch



My little bear is modeling my newest face mask.

This one was made for Mr Scrapatch as he asked for some new ones

as his are wearing out with daily use.


For this one I used a new type of flexible nose wire bar
from Gypsy Quilter.


which makes a nice flat fit. 
I also bought these at Fat Quarter Shop but they appear to be out of stock.

Every Little Mask Helps from Life in the Scrapatch



I am sewing Personal Use Fabric Masks.

I am using two layers or washed 100% tight woven quilting cotton.

I am using this

Easy DIY Fabric Mask Pattern 

from
Deaconess Hospital, Boston

They also have a
Free Mask Pattern with Tie Backs

I am adding a nose wire pocket
and making one deep chin tuck pleat
and a smaller ear tuck pleat.
This makes the mask more comfortable to wear.
I may make button headbands next.


My husband and I both need a larger mask.

I am cutting 7.5" by 11" rectangles of top fabric and white lining fabric ...
