A friend of mine said she needs some masks for her work so I decided to make a few for her today. I am about half done and hope to finish them tomorrow.
that's one nice Christmas print you got there. i had to buy a couple at michaels but i yet have to receive the mask from my sister. i found the camera print at amazon but it's not arriving until october 2. i think i have about a dozen now. i bought quite a few prints at $10 per half metre, my sister sews me a couple and a couple for her then she donates the rest to her church. i would've loved to do them, too, but alas, sewing machines are too complicated for me. well, i probably would know how to use it, it's the threading the bobbins that i could never quite get. 😜 today we went to michaels again, she to buy more fabrics and me to buy charms to decorate my masks. i'm such a diva!
Well, if this is taking a back seat, you should do it more often! Such gorgeous masks, too! Way prettier than the ones I’ve been doing... but they all serve the same purpose. My latest ones have been “window” masks for the teachers and specialty masks for playing instruments for the band kiddos... one style for brass, one for woodwinds and one for flutes. My way of helping the school be “in person” without me having to actually be there... damn oral prednisone!
I'm sure those are going to be worn with pride- such a nice variety! I finally broke down and bought a cloth one to wear at the hospital when I have my knee surgery. Since I don't do well when I have things on my face it's going to be a rough 24 hours!
Nice coordinating fabrics. I like the Christmas print. I have a bit of cloth and my sewing machine's been sitting out since before the start of the shelter in place, but I can't bring myself to make any. I was given two and bought one at Joann's. Because I don't go out much, these have been sufficient.
@summerfield I am glad you like it! These are probably not as nice as the ones your sister is sewing for you but they were made with love for my friend. @wyomingsis Aww that is so nice of you. How did you know? @dutchothotmailcom thank yo Esther @louannwarren thank you Lou Ann I hope so @shutterbug49 thanks so much Debbie I am glad you like it @onewing LOL! Isn't that the truth?! @taffy Thanks Taffy. A whole new way for us to accessorize! @marilyn you are always so full of positive comments Thank you so much I know your masks are every bit as nice and very appreciated by the school. I am glad you found a way to be present too in spite of your meds! @ludwigsdiana Thank you Diana. You are too kind to say that @linnypinny I am trying to use up my fabric! Thanks Lin @serendypyty Thank you Cazzi and I hope so @olivetreeann thank you Ann. When is your surgery? I am still praying for those knees! @randystreat I find it is a nice way to use up small pieces of fabric that i can't do much else with. I have made several for my teacher daughter and her children. Thanks Kathy
My surgery is on Monday the 21st as long as I pass the covid test. That takes place on Friday and I won't be able to go out or see anyone through the weekend. So hopefully all goes well. Thank you so much for your prayers! They mean the world to me!
