Here are several masks I made from this pattern
So far I made:
- Size XS w/o nose wire for my 4 yo daughter
- Size S w/o nose wire for my 9 yo son
- Size S w/ nose wire for my 11 yo son
- Size M w/o nose wire for myself
They are so quick to sew up compared to all the other patterns I tried (and I’ve tried a lot) I love making them and we are all really happy with the fit.
Next up will be size L w/ nose wire for my best friend.

Fabulous work! You’ve done a great job choosing fabrics, and did you hand paint the faces? Nice!
Wow, this topic won some sort of best-of/most popular award for 2020 (of course, a thread about mask making!).
Thank you @kittykill for sending me this fun stuff!
I feel like all you prolific mask makers deserve the credit so thanks to all of you for using your creativity for good!

My sister got her COVID vaccines wearing masks I made using your excellent tutorials. She said that she tried a lot of masks and these fit her the best. I am making her a few more since she lost her favorite when it must have fallen out of her car somewhere!
You deserve to be recognized for all of the testing and fine tuning you did to make this necessary accessory wearable and functional…a lot of people are alive and safe thanks to all of the mask makers and wearers
Well deserved, my friend…well deserved!

As usual I am late to the party but this is hands down the best mask pattern I’ve used. I was amazed at how quick it came together

Yay! So happy the pattern and instructions are easy to use. That was just what I intended when I set out to refine all the things I liked about other styles, leaving off all the things I did not like. I’m very glad this has been helpful to others

I’m glad you bumped this thread. I’m going to be traveling in 2 weeks and need some comfortable masks I can wear for 5-6 hours at a time. The ones I made previously are fine for short grocery shopping trips but the elastic starts to hurt my ears after 20 min or so. I bought a few masks from the store to try and they’re all huge on me. Thinking I’ll salvage the adjustable jersey ear loops from them and try your pattern this weekend.

The most comfy ear elastic I’ve tried is thin strips of pantyhose. It’s super soft & stretchy, much more gentle than elastic & thinner than jersey so less pressure behind the ear. I really like it.

Oooo I think I might have a pack of pantyhose in my drawer that’s sat in the package for the last decade. I knew I was keeping it for something!

I like the masks with ear elastic just fine for short trips, but over the head style is more comfy for long periods. I modified to include zip ties for singing. Take the zip ties out for laundering.
