Masks for Corona Virus (suggestions from Stephanie G)
Mask should be made with 3 layers.
Outer layer - (main fabric) tightly woven 100% cotton 12" x 6"
Middle layer - (middle liner) Non-woven fabric - light or medium layer of interfacing 10" x 6"
Inner layer - 100% cotton flannel (Flannel prefered but tightly woven cotton is ok)
16" of either 1/16" round elastic or 16" of flat 1/4" elastic (elastic should be used, don't make cloth ties). Pattern at www.craftpassion.com
