(15,417 posts)But mine go to hospitals so probably not too many workers with arthritis hopefully. I know it's maybe a slowdown, but the point is to save the N95 masks for the Covid and other more serious cases. Every mask has its advantages and disadvantages.
I also have gone through all my remnants. I twist balloons (or rather I twisted balloons - haven't since Covid), and I've made 60 plus vests over the years so I could always have a fresh vest for my multiple weekly gigs or holiday themed vests, etc. so I've made some interesting masks. I'm in KC, and Joann bought a TON of KC Chiefs fabric, and I bought an entire bolt because they bought too much so it was heavily discounted. I was going to make a vest out of that as well as table runners, pillow cases, etc. for friends and family who are fans. Gonna try a teddy bear, etc. but I've been going through that now. And now, when I drop off my masks at Joann's, I'll go through what they have (and the pickings are getting slim), and I think to myself, "Oh, that pattern would make some pretty masks," so I'll buy a few yards of fabric.
