That is a great training video, thanks for doing it. I do not have a sawing machine, do have a glue gun and might try it. However, in mean time, do you know of anyone who is making and selling a mask based on your design. I would like to buy a few for my wife and myself.

I have only one complaint about your mask pattern. It is so popular that I am having trouble keeping up! I’ve made them for family and friends that request more for their friends. It’s a wonderful problem to have. Hopefully I will get faster!
Thank you so much!
LOL. Thanks for the compliment. Good luck to you.
Hi there…I have been making masks for our community here in upstate New York. Pipe cleaners work WONDERFUL for over the nose.i bend one in half and Lightly wrap with a scrap of my lining…(our cotton bedsheet). I insert it into a narrow (header) .
Do you sell your masks
No, this is a list of sellers who do: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1a6yqchGZJVuaUw1K2iezY_2ABViFSjog64OmsAEtkjo/edit?usp=sharing
Pleas give me the dimensions to cut out the mask.

Please do not use flannel for the face masks. It is too hot. I am an urgent care nurse & this fabric does not work for the long periods we wear them. Also, a very soft type of material for around the ears is important. Our ears are getting sore from even softer materials. Thank You for supporting us & helping us to stay healthy; as our masks are now being rationed to us.

Hi I was wondering through the local home improvement store and spotted a wire which might work for the nose area how about speaker wire like this type here: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Southwire-100-ft-18-Gauge-2-Conductor-Standard-Speaker-Wire-By-the-Roll/1000733864
Do you think that this would work since it is sealed in plastic do you think it would work. I will do a test run tomorrow since Texas has decided to mandate mask on people over 10 years old when out in Public.
I’m not sure. But, try it. Or you can also purchase the 18 gauge wire at Lowe’s in the picture framing department.
Hi, I love your mask. Like you, I have made numerous masks from different patterns. I folded the lining under and used it for a filter pocket, thus, eliminating one layer of fabric. Think it works well. Thanks for sharing, Barb
We don’t have any electrical tape, will duct tape work or what else would you suggest for wrapping the nose piece paper clips
Yes, use what you have ;-).
