This is Brutus. Gosh, my windows need a cleaning.


Here is the pattern and tutorial I used for the mask. I thought the instructions for the mask were easy to follow. I kinda took a break from sewing for a bit; I'll probably expand on this later in a another post. This was an easy and quick sew. It would say it is very approachable. I chose this pattern because it was cute, covered the nose and mouth, and I like that there is a pocket to insert a filter. I am also thinking I could sew a couple of layers of heavy quilting cotton (recommended fabric in the tutorial). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


I pulled out the extra material from an old project. I used this nice heavy natural denim for the shell and an olive linen for the the lining. Yeah. It's cute.


Here is the set up:

I don't have a printer so I pulled the pattern up on my iPad scaled it with the line on the screen, zoomed in and out to get it to scale, and took a screen shot. lol. From there I opened it in picture and traced over the screen.

Got all my little pieces cut and ready.

Brutus was napping near by.



I ended up folding it over another time after here. I did that so there would be little extra room for the channel my ribbon was going through.

Here the shell and lining are pinned right sides together.

Here is the shell:

Something is going on with my surge machine's, I think, upper loppers.

After I turned it right side out and pressed it.

Here is my channel for my ribbon:

Little Luna came to hang out at the end:

I told Jeffery I look buff in this pic:

My little buddies joined in the pic.


I definitely recommend giving this sew a go. It is really quick, only four pieces and comes out looking professional. Brutus gave me two paws up on style if that says anything.
