Last Friday, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommended that we wear cloth masks when going out in public.
Amidst the COVID-19 (corona virus) outbreak, it’s very important that we protect ourselves.
Though this DIY mask is made of cotton materials and would not provide 100% protection against the corona virus, it definitely helps to create a barrier and highly reduces hand-to-face contact.
In addition to wearing your mask, be sure to practice social distancing and properly wash your masks after each use.
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1. Cut two 6.5” x 5.5” squares of both fabric
Step 2. Put prints with the right sides facing together
Step 3. Draw the curved edge on both fabric and sew along the curved line
Step 4. Cut out the full pattern leaving about ¼” of seam allowance
Step 5. Clip small lines along the curved edge to allow the fabric to be turned inside out easily
Step 6. Turn one of the fabrics inside out and place it inside of the other fabric
Step 7. Open and sew the long sides of the fabrics
Step 8. Turn the fabric right side out and iron along the long sides
Step 9. Fold the ends of the fabric inwards about ¼“ and iron it
Step 10. Add the ends of the 7″ elastic on the sides of the mask
Step 11. Sew alongside each edge to secure the elastic
Step 12. Wear your cool DIY mask 😀
