    CDC on Homemade Cloth Face Coverings
    CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of significant community-based transmission.
    CDC also advises the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure.
    Cloth face coverings should not be placed on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.
    The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance.

    I agree that this video was by far the best I have seen yet! Thank you for the very clear instructions both verbally and by video. I would like to mention that the blue pleated mask that you describe as an N95 is NOT an N95...It is a standard everyday mask we use for general purposes in the hospital. An N95 mask filters out 99% of small particles like viruses. This mask does not. The N95 is a stiff, rounded formed mask that does not have pleats. I say this only so the community doesn't get confused and think they are getting more protection than the standard hospital masks provide. It is, however, a great idea to insert a standard hospital mask inside the pocket for extra protection, These are more readily available. Thank you again! I am going to make two tonight for two medical practitioners to use when supplies are low. TI Registered Nurse

Adding extra insert will filter out 99% and is antiviral and antimicrobial. If only need protection from pollens, no need to use the insert.

    Thank you for this. My wife used your pattern to make the mask using shop towels instead of fabric, and skipped the interface. Also, she attached a doubled-over pipe cleaner above the nose to improve the seal. It is light, comfortable, and breathable. Shop towels are inexpensive and are supposed to be reasonably effective against the passage of viruses. It seems sturdy, but only time will tell how well it wears and cleans up.

    The first adult mask I made was too small (probably because the printer didn’t print to scale). I enlarged the pattern and got great results to fit our bigger faces and instead of ponytail holders I attached some bias tape ties (CZcams tutorials) that I folded and reinforced. I like the ties better because they don’t hurt my ears.

      Shelia Ervin I measured my face and increased
      the size of the pattern by about an inch and a half mostly lengthwise (added about an inch and a half to the chin) and a little bit to the sides so the proportions were basically the same. What I ended up with is sort of a one size fits all that actually fits my kids as well because the ties make it adjustable.

I have a tip I learned from another maker and that is if you make the elastic a little longer you can put the ends through a craft bead and this will make the elastic adjustable. The bead part stays outside behind your ears and you slide the bead back and forth to loosen or tighten. Thank you so much for this tutorial and free pattern.

      I want to switch to a fabric straps for tying also because the elastic has to be tied at the right length for each person, so I think ties are more adjustable. But that means making a lot of bias tape.

    I modified a similar pattern for my own use. I made the filter pocket opening on the bottom, it's a bigger opening, easier to insert your filter of choice. The tension when you wear it keeps the opening closed. I'm using pieces of blue paper shop towels for the filter. In lieu of elastic for ears, I'm using a shoe string and cinch lock, but could use a length of crochet chain.

      I read that too about the glue. Also all those layers might not be very breathable! Pellon recommends light to medium weight sew-in interfacing. I think you could also make the sew-in interfacing as a separate mask (without the seam allowances around the sides) if you want to insert it in the fabric mask but not actually have it sewn into it.

      I went to three Walmarts today trying to get materials. The first 2 had shut down the crafts section, and the managers refused to cut fabric even when I explained what I wanted it for. It's really insane to shut down the only place where you could get materials, after the CDC recommended people at least wear homemade masks. That section requires a single employee. Then need to reopen the craft stores. I would consider them essential businesses.

      Use the ties, if you'd like. I've read that medical professionals are requesting the cloth ties because they'll hold up better than elastic with the washings. I started making them with elastic from my stash, but have run out. Order arrives hopefully by 4/15. I've used bias tape, elastic cording (about 1/8"), and may make my own bias cut ties from 100% cotton.

I made yards and yards from standard Kona white cotton and cut to fit each mask as I sew.
