A Countenance of Masks!

 I don't know if there is a term for a group of masks,

but I think there should be, 

All these were given away!


considering the numbers being made and worn around the world!

This is my grandson Eli proudly wearing his!

I've made over forty so far, 

most having been given to friends.

These (above) are made from a pattern I found here.

As I am going back to 'real-life' teaching soon,

I thought it was important I had enough to 

give me plenty of choices!


The latest two, and the ones above, are made following 

my favourite pattern (found here)!

It's the only one that effectively stops my glasses 

from fogging up

without having to insert a wire or pipe cleaner!

I used a much-loved, long-hoarded piece of Tula Pink 

fabric (below) for this one...

Perfect for sunnier and longer Spring days!


While they look at little large on my face here,

I know they will shrink a bit after washing.

Have you been making masks?

And what is your favourite pattern?

Happy sewing!

Looking for a name!

I have had this pattern in my stash for over three 

years now!

It was a Block of the Month by Brigitte @Zen Chic

And a state of lockdown means no shopping except 

for groceries and medical supplies.

So, I did some stash diving and got cutting!


 I chose to cut the twenty rectangles first.



Then the blocks.

They are 6” and 12” blocks so all pretty 

straightforward, except the pattern is in German.



But there are good diagrams so nothing I couldn’t 

figure out.

Strangely I never found out the official name for it.


I went looking on her new and old blog but could 

find no reference to it.

It seems it was released through Instagram, but still 

without a name!

So while I sew masks I'll be contemplating what I 

should call it.

My husband has laid claim to this one!

Any ideas???

I recently gifted one of my quilts and received both  

a delicious box of chocolates and this photo as a 

thank you.



Oscar looks quite at home there, don't you think?

Happy sewing!
