gonna make this 10-minute mask i wont to be





hesitating to make these because there was plenty of debate about whether or not they





were even effective or not there's also lots of other great tutorials already





out there but last night mayor Garcetti here in l. a. recommended that





when you are going out anywhere to please wear these then I figure it





would be really helpful for you guys have tutorial to not mention y'all I'm





messaging me each day asking for one so this is gonna include elastic I do have





a ties video coming also but the elastic ones are people who I even have been





making let's just jump right in I'm gonna show you ways to make these about





10 minutes really quick and easy this is often often





two layers of fabric very very first thing we're gonna do this is simply just like the easiest one





super fast if you're gonna donate these they need to be two differing kinds of





fabric that way medical professionals know which side has been toward their





face which side has been out just to keep it clean and for you to to know





which way the mask goes right sides together then what we'll do is we're





going to sew all the way around it leaving a hole and thus the elastic goes





to go here on the within from this end to that end but that'll get on the within





so I'm just gonna go ahead and clip those into place there's one





let's go so I'm using polyester thread and along the long side I'm going to





leave a niche that way we'll flip it right side out half inch seam allowance





or so





back stitch





when you get to the corner I'm going to go back and forth several times over





that elastic





pivot





hey once we revisit to the beginning leave slightly bit of a hole back stitch





you can trim your corners take slightly bit of that bulk out okay then send it





right side out use your finger to pop out those corners iron your seams just





quickly just to make sure that they're laying nice and flat before we sew it





around





I'm not inserting wire or anything into





it because i don't have any a and B I tried pipe cleaners which they only did





not work so I'm just gonna choose it like it is true here this is often often where our





opening is I'm gonna have that be at the





bottom before we start i might wish to make three marks with just a





water-soluble pen I'm gonna use the marks here on my machine it doesn't have





to be super scientific okay so here again is our opening that's gonna get on





the bottom and that i am gonna show you ways to do your pleats along side your seam ripper





makes it very easy fast you'd wish to iron it or pin it or anything I'm gonna





have slightly bit less seam allowance so I'm gonna move my needle position over





slightly okay we're starting at the very best right of our mask from the front side so





this is my front this is often often often often my back although it doesn't really matter





back stitch okay well I'm gonna grab my seam ripper I'm gonna go where that mark





is tuck that in there then rotate it up and then again for the second mark see





how that's going then for the third





okay we're gonna return the precise same





way we're going to mimic the pleats from our other side so as that the pleats are





the same direction





back around the top now and then I'm gonna go around it another





time I'm gonna back stitch over those pleats slightly bit more just because





these are becoming to undergo hot washes they're gonna get washed plenty used a





time yanked on so one confirm everything is essentially secure





all right that's it what'd you guys think not regrettable right leave me any





questions down below inspect the blog post as always we'll have everything





written bent not mention other tips and tricks that I found like all sides





need to vary colors that way you know what side is contaminated when





you're out and about if you are taking it off it is double sided though so you'll use





either side





I'm not pre watching my fabric beforehand because variety of those I'm





using scraps on the opposite hand ready to |i'll"> i will be able to be able to wash them





when I'm done making them I put them in





a lingerie bag or kind of a mesh bag wash them on hot these need to be 100





percent cotton a really high quality cotton which can be washed really





rigorously over and once more and if you don't have elastic you'll use hair





ties or hair bands like from the dollar store you'll cut those up and use that





there's some other ways you'll utilize elastic or once I even have that ties





video done ready to |i'll"> i will be able to be able to link that down below





as well but I hope you all are staying





safe and healthy all my best wishes to you guys so I'll see you within subsequent
