More masks............

All of my sewing time yesterday was masks for the cancer patients, 10 here in child size.







I used some of my least favorite batik fabrics for the 16 adult size masks.  Now I need to get them ready to mail so someone can get them to the post office for me.
My daughter in law was my grocery angel yesterday.  I was out of all of the fresh veggies.







I haven't had a salad for several days so it really tasted good.

  4. You were busy! That is a lot of masks for just a couple days work. The veggies look so good. I am not a salad eater, but yours does look very tasty.

  6. You have always had a giving heart, your masks will be so appreciated. This is a year we will never forget, our area is like the rest of the nation with school and business closures. This is a huge wake up call for so many. You have a very sweet daughter in law to shop and deliver your produce. We're salad people too and so far my husband who's doing our shopping for now said there was not a shortage of produce .

  8. Your salad looks delicious - it's amazing how quickly the fresh veggies and fruit disappear!

  9. Salads really look and taste delicious during the spring. What a wonderful DIL. My brother (and SIL) is taking such good care of my parents. I just can't thank him enough. I had wondered about using batiks for the masks. I'm not sure why I hesitated. Stay safe.

  10. I haven't made any masks!!! My elastic and fabric is still in boxes!!! It would take me several days to find both... in useful quantities. I would have bought some, but by then all the stores were ordered to close here!!! We have a big salad every single day and a fruit and veggie smoothie. The fresh food is a necessity! Stay well!!!

    Rest going to a cousins wife who is a nurse practitioner and wants to extend life of her n95 masks.

  12. What is the size of your child's mask and, even more importantly, how a piece of elastic did you use? Our local county domestic violence shelter is begging for masks, so I'm about to start on some.
    Cheers, Linda
