(11,616 posts)12. I just completed my 150th mask
Basically following the procedure in the video. But I dont have any interfacing and dont do the fancy top stitching. My wife did lots of sewing and I have a steamer trunk full of remnants that Im using. Plus some old twin bed size sheets that I have no use for. Giving them to family and friends and an agency that is collecting resources for the homeless.
