I am planning on making 100 masks. I am going to wash and dry the fabric today, then cut out the fabric covers tonight. I will have the elastic tomorrow and should be able to sew up the masks in a day or so.

Please note that I am using my old Singer 503 from the 1960's. It sews about 4 times faster than my new Viking.
