Everyone is pitching in, making masks, delivering materials, picking up supplies.. and getting masks out to our local shelters and healthcare professionals who are so bravely working for us all!!

Check out our *UPDATED DESIGN VIDEO* on how to make a mask out of a shop towel!! Thank you to all the crafters and those wearing masks for the feedback!! We are standardizing how each mask will be made. We have updated the design with THREE big changes!
