During this time, we’d like to help.
We are making masks from our fabric stash & sharing our pattern with anyone who wants it. We used a serger but every crafty quilter could use this as a start.
There is no guarentee that it will keep away any disease, however if it helps to keep folks safe, that’s worth it.
Please share this with anyone.
Stay safe & take care!
