Thanks for the link.
I made ONE of the pleated ones and blech! The fit was horrible with all those pleats making gaps.
I did one like the one you linked. It was ok for fit but to much bulk for my smaller machine. I ended up using my big machine anyway on the others I made.
Mine are looking like this....

Nice!
I haven't tried that style yet...how do you like the fit vs the typical pleated one?

Yeah, I have a beast of a big straight stitch machine...she's a Juki and her name is actually Juju the Beast. (Yes, I'm that one...the one who names her machines..)
(...and not all of the names are nice or repeatable here....)

Juju can sew through 10 layers of denim like butter and I joke to my quilt friends that she'd sew through the bottom of my shoe if I asked her too.

They’re pretty easy to make even without sewing!

I did the bandana with hair bands version today.
I didn't leave my house though.
I was just practicing.

I need some masks made.

Message me, I'll get you taken care of. Just need to know your general size and how many you need.

Silly, not here!
So you have an average face shape? Um, you're not fluffy?

Sure you don't want to try and sew one yourself? There are some easy tutes out there.

I just need to know your basic face shape. Long face? (like are you tall and skinny?)
or are you a shorty like me? (short face)
Or are you fluffy? (um, generously made)
Average?

The masks come in several sizes.
