I just gotta say, it’s kind of overwhelmingly awesome how many masks this community is cranking out. Is anyone keeping a total tally? I’m sure it’s HUGE!!

Title: Stash fabric (bottom of the barrel
Made for local health care workers.

Oh so many pretty/wild/fun masks. I’m in the “I’m never going to use that fabric for anything” part of my stash. But I do thank my mother and all the others who have donated their unwanted fabric to me and I was crazy enough to keep it. The health care workers are just grateful. So grateful to all of you who are making them for workers. And yes, I make special ones for family and friends from my “love that fabric” part of my stash.

I’m current have several dozen blanks cut out and 14 in progress to add to the 10 finished for this week’s batch, hope to get more done by Sunday. But I am in “not another video conference” mode right now. How the heck can anyone work when they are in meetings all day long? And we are all at home working. I miss the first week or so of stay at home when so many had not figured out Skype, Teams, Zoom, Hangouts, GoToMeeting, Faceboot live streaming, etc. etc.

Title: Sis and BIL needed more
Made for: My sister and her husband

My sister and her husband had one mask each in a different style made by her SIL. She saw my fitted masks on FB and requested a few. They were not happy with the pleated masks they had received and will give them back for maybe someone else who might like them better.

My sister wanted something with kimonos on it. The geisha fabric was the best I could do. My BIL didn’t care…so I made him peppers and shibori fabric ones.

My hubby has a couple N95 masks from work but decided he wanted a fabric one too as they are more comfortable.

Deaconess Masks

Tie Back Scrub Pattern by adesignbyangie (Etsy)

I’ve churned out 15 masks and 20 scrub caps for friends and family. Scrub caps have been donated to the staff in the ER I work in. I may not be “front line” staff, but I do support an amazing team of ER staff members and I wanted to help them in whatever way I could.

Pics of my last mask I made last night!!

Title: New pattern test!
Masks for: Mr. Road/BIL
Pattern Link to Share: https://www.prettyhandygirl.com/best-fit-face-mask/

Notes on pretty handy girl’s pattern - LOVE this one. It take a little longer to make, but I think it’s worth it. I used her suggestion of coffee ties for the nose clip and @MistressJennie’s suggestion of t-shirt yarn for the adjustable ties. Passed the fit test with both Mr. Road and my BIL, and doesn’t fog up glasses (at least with short term wear)!!

Forgot to mention that @AIMR suggested some elements of this pattern a while back - namely the adjustable ear straps. I was impressed with some of the other suggestions/modifications in the video, and decided to give the pattern a try. Thank you for sharing always!
