Sewing Cloth Face Masks

The 2020 coronavirus pandemic forced a temporary shift in priorities at ReSewn. Sewing cloth face masks to give away for free has replaced sewing items to sell at craft markets. Thankfully, I had many yards of cotton fabrics in stash that were suitable. Have given away approximately six dozen masks over the past few weeks to family, friends, acquaintances, and their family, friends, and acquaintances. Will continue to sew masks until I run out of fabric, as it seems face masks will become a regular necessity of everyday life for the near future, and I much prefer reusable, durable, washable masks over disposables that contribute to landfill waste.
