Repeat steps 2-3 with your other fabric to get the back of the mask.

7

Line up the back of your mask with the front, nice side facing down this time. Pin the tops of the nose sections together so they don’t separate. The elastics should be sandwiched in the middle. Pin the elastics down.

To make the mask front: fold your first fabric in half. Lay the pattern in the center, treating it as a template to cut around. You should end up with two mirror image pieces:

To make elastic ties: cut two 1 in. x 4-6 in. strips (depending on size) from your t-shirt fabric. Pull each one the long way so the edges tuck themselves in.

8

Now start sewing around the mask, starting at the bottom. Leave a couple inches unsewn at the ends.

3

With the two pieces matched up, sew them together across the rounded nose section. Make sure to knot at the top and bottom.

6

Lay the front of your mask down so the side you want showing faces up. Making sure they aren’t twisted, position your elastic ties so the ends lay on the edges of the mask and the loops face inward.

Turn your mask inside out. If it fits nicely, sew the remaining few inches closed. And celebrate!
