Making Your Own Mask

image_printPRINT PAGE

A tutorial on how to make your own fabric face mask from common household materials.

β€œThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has recommended that healthy and sick Americans wear basic cloth masks in public β€” a result of new concerns that the coronavirus is spread by infected people who have no symptoms.” Access the pattern and read the rest of this NYT article here. 

Now to find my sewing machine. Susan’s are so much more attractive than the hardware store variety! 

Thank you, Susan for sharing your sewing with us.

These resourceful nighttime intruders have nailed getting into unlocked cars. Their break-and-enter techniques rival those used by human car burglars. And they’ve learned which are the easiest targets: minivans, Hondas and Toyotas. Best to be β€œbear aware” when travelng in the Sierras!

Most local flower shops, considered nonessential businesses, are closed. The virus has disrupted supply chains and forced florists to miss out on millions of dollars in revenue as event after event has evaporated. 
For the time being, I’m proposing a colorful/practical alternative.
