There have been requests for people who can make masks. The medical community is running out of equipment. Masks being one of them. So I would like to pass this along from the Florida Quilt Network.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
By now, I'm sure you've heard about how medical personnel are
running out of equipment that will keep them safe, and I'm thinking its
going to get worse before it gets better. I love how everyone is
mobilizing to this effort: beer makers are switching to making hand
sanitizer, my daughter's favorite clothing company in California is
switching their work to face masks for the near future, etc. Hubby is
wondering about CPAP machines...seems they are pretty close to
ventilators, can't someone run with that idea?
Anyway,
there are lots of patterns out there, but I'd like to submit to you a
video I made with Kelsey Scott, our class coordinator at The Sewing
Studio. I'm making bunches of these today for my
doctor who called asking for enough for her staff. She will be using
them as covers for their dwindling supply of N-95 masks.
I also ordered some of these
air filters which I will use inside the next batch of face masks I make. These actually filter out viruses, according to the package.
Stay inside, think happy thoughts, pray for your community, eat healthy and take care of you and yours!!
