Had to repeat the theme

New Version of Face Masks


The original version had no nose bridge to pinch.
The second version had a twistie tie covered 
with white fabric duct tape as a nose pinch.
This third version in a slightly bigger size 
has a plastic nose bridge with double wire
laminated.  I used a zigzag stitch to secure it.


Today's 4th version has the nose bridge
(and a larger size for adults, XL) in 
a stitched pocket at the top.
But it also has a slit in the back
for inserting a filter,
This was a request from a grandson who
is returning to college as a senior.


It slides right in.


And will lay flat in the folds


The filter adds extra protection
closer to a N95 mask.



New Cards for July and August Occasions


Birthday wishes with a 
new candles die cut


Room for a note and a check\inside!

For a grandson who likes
camp fires and the night sky

I made lots of kits
with this design
and a variety of patterned papers
for our monthly get-together.
We social distanced and 
did assembly only, no 
sharing of equipment!

More Face Masks for Kids


We made more kids face masks
for two more preschool/daycare centers
in town.


We're making the masks a little bigger 
for school age children in their
camp or daycare programs this summer
while their parents work at home
or as essential workers.

This is what we received in return.
Very nice thank you notes!
