Mask one for my father. Design is Made by Barb’s N95 style, but I forgot that it was supposed to be worked up differently and turned it inside out rather than binding the edges with bias tape. Hopefully the fit is still okay.


A black cloth facemask printed with rainbow printed musical notes scattered over it. There are elastic ear loops sewn in withwhite zigzag thread.

The inside of the mask. Off white fabric with a dart or gore in the middle of a central arch. A rectangular box of stitching crosses near the top

A woman wearing glasses and the mask, seen from a slight angle to show its close fit and stitching.



Quilter’s cotton, Oly Fun polypropylene, and 600 thread count cotton sheeting. I sewed the strip from a coffee bag into the bridge of the nose for shaping it close to the face, and then sewed a plastic cable tie/ziptie across the inside of the lining layer as boning.
