Medical Face Masks for the children
 
1 Attachment(s)
I finished some more medical face masks for the children in Massachusetts hospitals who have Congenital Heart Defects. I generally send out 40 each month (10 large, 10 medium, 10 small & 10 baby sizes). This time I am doubling up September & October & sending out 80 face masks. I've made some cute Halloween ones for October. I don't have a lot of seasonal kid friendly fabric but was given some that I know the children will like. The baby face masks are made with the ties because I don't have a baby pattern with the elastic ear loops. The tie masks are better for babies. Some of you will recognize your donated fabric for this cause. Thanks for looking & sharing.

Why not post the link for all? I would like the pattern.

Mariposa 09-18-2017 12:26 PM

Is there a pattern for these somewhere?

Here is the pattern I use. I posted it earlier but it was deleted by our quilting board moderator. I will try again & see if it stays.

osewme 09-18-2017 03:25 PM

If you want the pattern for the masks with the ties you can p.m. me with your email as I have it scanned on my computer & don't know how to attach a scanned item here. I will be more than happy to email it to anyone who wants it.

Could you please give me the sizes you use for children. Thank you.
