Background: In this time where wearing masks is highly recommended (and for good reason) in public, it’s not only hard to find good masks but finding ones that fit well is even harder. As someone who (when I was working) wore masks every work day for 10 years now, I’m well acquainted with the intricacies of breathing, wearing, glasses fogging, fit and feel of medical grade masks. I scoured the internet early on looking for good directions on an ideal facemask and came across a great resource. Unfortunately, it was every woman for herself when it came down to sewing materials so finding them was and is still difficult. It’s a good thing we like to hoard items. From materials either at home or scrounged from the leftovers in the stores, on top of adjusting the guide directions to better fit our faces (all instructions online are for the general, average built person and my nose is not big), we ended up creating our own products. I am still SUCH a sewing n00B.
