Living the Covid Life

We are doing our best to flatten the curve.

Our world is strange now and scary.

I can't see my girls 

or my Mom.

I do my best to talk to them, 

through their anxieties

about everything.

New York State

has been declared a disaster.

Starting tomorrow,

we will be like Italy 

in our measures.

Tim and I started about 10 days ago.

We are older, 

and I have lung issues.

BUT....

There is much we can do!

Come on, my stitching friends,

There are MANY masks needed.

Not just our state,

but perhaps yours as well.

Maybe not today,

but certainly

in the days to come.

Doctors, Nurses,

Nursing Homes,

Vets and Vet Techs,

Home Care Workers...

 Both of my daughters

wear masks every day, 

so I approached this

from a Mom point of view.

.....also, as a doll maker,

I don't have elastic.

That is hard to find as well.

My thread may not match~

I am using up scraps

and fabric 

that no longer serves my art.

The insides are lined 

with muslin.

Cotton fabric is perfect,

and these masks fit around your face

 quite well.

 am providing the link for this pattern.

It is not to be made for profit,

so please use it 

for it's intended use.

Stay safe my friends

and

flatten the curve!
