Description
The cloth face coverings recommended by the CDC 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.
Wash after each use. Hand wash with mild soap (in the sink like washing your hands), rinse well, reshape and dry flat or hang to dry.
Too big: tie a knot in the band
Too little: cut the band and add shoelace type ties
I make all kinds of quilted textiles, bed quilts and wall quilts in traditional and contemporary styles. All are one of kind creations whether I use hand sewing skills or a home sew machine. My reversible and reusable cloth face masks are available at all of the SHCG Shops.

USI like it a lot; I only wish there was a pocket to insert a filter. But it's fine as it is for situations where I won't be around a lot of people and I really appreciate that it's hand made by an artisan. I've recommended it to friends.
United StatesSturdy, comfy, and they fit well. The design allows me to slip the mask off temporarily and have it hang loose around my neck and then slip it back on. The wire allows me to shape it snugly across my nose.
United States United StatesVery well made, cleverly constructed, thick cotton, and best I have found. It took me awhile to figure out how to put them on, but once I did they fit perfectly! Thank you.
United StatesOrdered 2 - gray and neutral. The gray was for hubby and neutral for his daughter. They are very happy with them. Getting ready to order a few more for myself and more gifts. They are well-made, and fit all size people. Love the fabrics! Thanks, Connie! And thanks Kristin for the lightning fast shipping!
