bibiche Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Here’s one request in Indiana. I’m sure places all over the country are looking for worst case scenario back up masks. If you have the means to help, please do. https://www.courierpress.com/story/news/2020/03/18/coronavirus-deaconess-ask-public-provide-medical-face-masks/2865273001/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edelweiss Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 That's such a great idea! I can't even sew a button onto anything, so I can't help at all, but I would think that it is a great thing for people who can sew to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some places are asking for people who can’t sew to cut, and then they will pick up the cut pieces and take them to others to sew. Look around. 👍🏼 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 this is one providence Everett is asking people to do. I wish they gave instructions. these are full face masks, but they still need something to cover the mouth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bibiche Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 Here is another pattern by a nurse for nurses. This one doesn't use elastic, so it will hold up to repeated washings. If you have a sewing machine and some fabric, please consider making masks for our healthcare workers. It's an easy project, so maybe your children could get involved; doing something to help often reduces their anxiety. https://www.instructables.com/id/AB-Mask-for-a-Nurse-by-a-Nurse/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy101 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I’m sorry I didn’t see this thread before starting one asking for patterns! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
