Face Masks 3

Posted on May 27, 2020 | 7 comments

I thought I was done making face masks.

I really did.

But then the oldest grandson called. He said that his co-workers wanted face masks.

And he said he loves me.

So I made twelve more (not all are pictured).

Face Masks 2 (This is where you will find the pattern that I am using.)

I have made more bow tie blocks. This brings the count to 628.

Stay safe! Stay healthy!

Quilt on!

Face Masks 2

Posted on April 7, 2020 | 8 comments

Since I wasn’t happy with the pattern that I used previously, I tried another tutorial for making face masks.

I am much happier!

I like Julie’s (The Crafty Quilter) tutorial. It is well written, has options, and I can leave it on the screen (once loaded) without internet access. I am rural, so internet access isn’t always available. Therefore, I limit video time, such as You Tube.

I choose to use a different fabric for the reverse side. This allows the wearer to know which side he/she has been wearing towards the face.

I also choose to stitch the ties down instead of threading them through the casing. I think it is easier to use them.
