Making Masks...Because That's What Everyone is Doing!!!

Thanks to this damn pandemic, everyone and their brother is making face masks.  The CDC has made the recommendation that when going out in public, which they suggest you don't do at this point in time, you wear a mask to cover your mouth and nose.  

Bill and I bought N95 masks back in February but Wendy asked if I would make masks for them, especially Dan since he is doing most of the grocery shopping.  Not a problem!  I found a video on YouTube...5 minute mask.  HA!  The first one took me most of the afternoon.  

I made two for each of them.  This is my first one, for Dan.
I didn't take a picture of the back but it was bees.
Wendy sent these two to Ray and Cecile in TX so they would each have a mask. 
This is, quite possibly, the only time they will wear them ;o) 

Then I made Wendy and Dan another one, 
(Same masks, front and back)
made one for Greg and Ella, forgot to take pictures ;o(
and made one for each of us.
(Same masks, front and back)
Then I ran out of elastic and it's impossible to buy more.

Some of the people I follow on Instagram have made hundreds of them.  Hundreds!  Seriously?  Ten was more than enough for me, I was happy to run out of elastic ;o)  However, Wendy has some if I really need some.

Thanks for stopping by...  stay well!
;o)
