Well, I tried and gave up sewing masks lol. I’m going to get some with filter pockets from Etsy.

Hopefully, I can get enough for my husband 50 employees using different sellers. I’m thinking ideally it can cover their N95s and get more use out of them, or they can cut up vacuum filters to put in them.

It’s crazy, I have no problems giving farm animals shots, or turning a breach, but this sewing machine intimidates the heck out of me!!!

It CAN be VERY frustrating/intimidating, especially if you don’t use the machine on a regular basis (like me!).

And, if you happen to have several machines....like me :- /

The last time I did a ‘large quantity’ project (costumes), I used my old Singer. It’s a workhorse.

But, the machine I keep out, and have used most recently, is a Janome. I had to get the book out, the other day, to look something up...as I’d forgotten, since the last time.

Etsy is always a good back up.

I could probably swing this, but people might wonder if I had my wisdom teeth out, lol

if you want to spend $10 bucks a mask that Nascar company is still making them. I ordered the $5 mask but since they quit making that version they have upgraded me.
