If you’re in the Purdue area, an EPICS team has put together a new PPE made from housing wrap that can be used to sew isolation gowns and scrub caps. They are looking for people to help cut materials daily and then home sewers to pick up packs of 10 to sew the PPE outfits at home. I just picked up a packet today and have set up shop in the apartment to put this PPE together. They are aiming to make 1000 sets, so if 100 people volunteer to each make a set, we’ll reach that goal quickly! If you’re in the Lafayette area and have a sewing machine, e-mail jgoetz@purdue.edu to arrange picking up a set. If you can sew, but don’t have access to a machine, let me know and I may be able to lend you a machine from my department, I have to check with my adviser. If you can’t sew, but are handy with a pair of scissors, consider volunteering to cut material for shift. We can do this together. Bonus puppy for added comfort. . . . . . #sewunited @singersewingcompany #sewing #ppe #covidcrafts #staysafe #stayhome (at West Lafayette, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_VAzx1ltmY/?igshid=1oug2xtzgqtkp

Working on some kid sized masks today. My nephew is obsessed with chickens so I want to make sure I have some chicken ones to mail him for the next school year. . #wearamask #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJlY5SAous/?igshid=1lammeuc8kq8f

Someone tell me why the husband can’t wear a regular mask pattern‽ I had thought we finally found one that fit decent but look at how many tucks I had to pin! So then I made a pattern just for him based off that shape. It looks like we might have found a winner...at least until he tells me in another 3 weeks it doesn’t actually fit well 😂 . #wearamask #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCCkyQugMl7/?igshid=1dccryy51yu89

With the school year fast approaching it’s time for me to circle back to mask making. The husband is a high school teacher and I’ve only made him one mask so far since he only makes grocery store trips right now. I also want to make sure he has an extra stash to give to kids that might need them. Oh, and since I’m the one doing the sewing I’m picking the loudest colors or silliest patterns I can find for him 😂 . #threadedlines #wearamask #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB-72VAA4ef/?igshid=5xemb29gh8q9

I placed a pickup order at @joann_stores today because I need to make some solid blue, black or white face coverings for work if I’m going to wear my own. I also decided to try and line these with a satin. Wearing the quilting cotton for 8 hours a day is starting to aggravate my skin. I’ll test this one tomorrow and see how it goes. Everything is a bit trial and error at this point and that’s ok. #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask #singersewingmachine #singerserger #singerprofinish (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_3kNvzg387/?igshid=119a7vipx9bs3

I’m loving this @tulapink squirrel fabric! Those new wire nose pieces are working great and have definitely helped. I was able to finish 10 mores masks today.

Guys!! Look What Showed Up!!! These are adhesive wire pieces made for the nose strips in masks. No more cutting floral wire! That is definitely going to help the process. #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #clothfacemask (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_qW4WIAaCA/?igshid=sagcxnmcti2q

So, my nephew is obsessed with chickens and I have been on the hunt for chicken fabric since I found out the kids masks I made fit. I finally found some at @harts_fabric and, since we have established that I have a problem, I found some other super cute fabrics too. . #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_oO0FUAqZg/?igshid=n5nykrq2kyb8

I finally took a minute today to try and figure out a count of how many masks I’ve made so far. I’m at about 110! Hopefully I can get through this stack tomorrow. They’re pinned and ready to sew 🧵 #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_bYLNbgDLh/?igshid=wohbm9iqzq3c

Realistically I know I’ve made quite a bit of progress. I mean, I finally figured out that I’ve cut out about 150 masks in this batch. I just wish I was seeing more complete. This is the part where I get frustrated because I keep feeling that I should be further or faster. I just have to get out of my own head. #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #covidbutmakeitfashion #clothfacemask (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_WC0AHgIY6/?igshid=j30h4wtpvasa

😂😂😂 Guys! I can’t. These were a one time thing. A friends husband requested this craziness and sent me the bags to make them. 😂 😂😂 If this was what it would take to get him to wear a mask I was game. #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited #covidmask #covidmasks #facemaskhomemade #masksforall #crownroyalmask #clothfacemask (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_V-RltgoBJ/?igshid=1e743wzvw7hga

So I bought some more fabric, lol. I know. I’m not done with my other stack yet. But my Mom asked for masks for my Stepdad and I know he’s not going to wear neon. I couldn’t resist adding these @tulapink squirrels prints to the mix too.

Today our county judge announced that starting Monday masks would be mandatory. I’m now so glad I have tomorrow off so I can focus on sewing as much as possible. I have no idea how many I can actually finish by Monday but anything I can get done will be better then nothing. Don’t forget if you’re looking for this awesome fabric to check out @threadedlines and support small businesses! #threadedlines #tulapinkfabric #tulapinkhomemade #tulapink #diyfacemask #sewistsofinstagram #facemask #stayathome #stayhomeandsew #maskon #getmasked #sewTogether #sewist #sewingmasks #sewingfacemasks #inthistogether #sewunited (at Houston Tx City-state) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_ThNI0gzfw/?igshid=e3whwdbp5eut
