kathy: Hi Everyone, We have a request to make hospital masks for Ann Arbor St Joe heart floor,and Cleveland ER Clinic. They request that we make them with two differnet color sides. So they can be used twice before washing. Mar 22, 2020 12:10:50 GMT -5

elvia: I seen that Henry Ford has request for the Jackson area. I am in the Lenawee area and called Bixby/ProMedica. They have a different mask from what I have seen on FB and Youtube. Will make some samples before diving in full steam. Mar 23, 2020 10:55:05 GMT -5
elvia: They will get a smile when they see my scraps being used. BTW Bixby also mentioned that the homecare agencies like Great Lakes, ect. Their nurses have nothing. Please do what you can and stay well. Mar 23, 2020 10:56:24 GMT -5

jdquilts123: I'm starting a thread about the masks up in the projects board. The shoutbox messages will disappear but posting in the board topics will stay around. Do you have a pattern for the kind of masks you want to make, Elvia? Mar 23, 2020 12:33:50 GMT -5

Admin: Thank you for all the masks, sewsalot. I doubt I'll ever make 300 but I do plan on making a few more when we get up to the cabin. Apr 29, 2020 14:23:00 GMT -5

Admin: I love hearing from you as well. It's chilly here this morning but it will warm up eventually. 400 masks are sure a lot. Good for you. Keep it up. I know lots of people need them and you are such a blessing. JDQuilts123 and Admin are the same person. May 8, 2020 12:44:54 GMT -5

cashmerequeen: Taking a break from face bibs. Put out an APB for elastic. Opened up a Vogue blouse pattern described as very loose fitting.(You know where this is going!) Vogue's ease chart is at least 8" for VLF. My covid bustline is 3" larger & sagging. May 15, 2020 7:26:55 GMT -5
