I didn't get a lot of things finished this week ... but I sure got a LOT of things started.... so that is great... as in ... I will have Future Finished Friday things.... right?
The big thing finished is a new mask for my Dad and a new one for me... I have to wear them a couple of days a week for 8 hours at a time... and they kinda give me a bi focal type vision.
So I found some little metal pieces , made a little casing and stitched them for over your nose. I tested mine - Dad will get his this weekend - and we will see if those make us not so dizzy!!
The top is mine - cuz Purple.... and Dad gets the Firefighter one... cuz retired Fire Chief
Also - in case you missed it - a NEW mystery is starting:
And now.... it is your turn....
Share your Finishes ( or not Finishes)

Will we ever finish making masks???
ReplyDeleteAnd I haven't participated in a mystery in ages...hmmmm...
Good morning, Alycia! Yeah, I need to make myself a few more masks. Wearing them for 8 hours+ a day gets old really fast. I've put a short piece of pipe cleaner in the top edge of my masks and sewed around it. It lasts and has washed well so far. I went back into the office at the beginning of August so two months of washings. AND you're hosting a new mystery QAL?! I'll be watching for the details on 10/1. Thank you for the link-up - I'm thrilled to have a finish finally. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteI don't need another sew along, I don't need another sew along, I DON'T need another sew along! LOL
ReplyDeleteMask Making is one of those tasks we may never see the end of... my Dad is a retired Fire Chief too!
ReplyDeleteNice work on the masks, too.
ReplyDeleteSEW looking forward to seeing the new mystery unfold!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the unfun task of mask making! I'm looking forward to seeing some of the things you've been starting recently!
ReplyDeleteGood job on the masks. Looking forward to seeing those future finishes.
ReplyDeleteI've used pipe cleaners over the nose for my masks (also a glasses wearer). Let me know how the strips work. I've seen them for sale, but haven't tried them.
ReplyDeleteFun masks! I'm still making them in dribbles and drabs as requested by various family members. Enjoy your new starts.
