Print Pattern Sheet: Simple Mask
I used flannel for the inside and you could use designer art prints for the front like she did in the video, or whatever you have. This mask is very comfortable.
Cut two, or 3 if you want a pocket, 8″ by 10″ (adult) or 7″x9″ (small child).
1. Serge all sides, wrong sides together, or, for pocket fold two in half and lay against wrong side of third piece and serge all sides.
2. Fold down top edge, wrong side over right side, 2xs and stitch.
3. Fold sides in to form casings and stitch.
4. Use 45″ or longer shoestrings from dollar store and running from top to bottom and then bottom to top on other side, thread the tie. I have a tool for that but a small chop stick also worked. Just tape the ends and pull it through. Both ends will now be above top edge.
5. Put loop over back of head so mask is in front. Pull up on ties, gathering sides and tie on top of head. Make knots on ends to keep mask from slipping below where it is comfortable when not wearing.
