Our schools just announced that masks will be required for next year, so I am sure I will be making more too.

And my work got us branded ones but they have the elastic for the ears that I don't like, so I need to add ties. I'm not likely to be back to work in person until August but I should probably get them ready anyway.

Assuming you would have ordered the extra wide backing online, can you check your credit card statements and look for places from which you might have ordered. I also keep the confirmation emails from online sites in a folder in my gmail. Not that I'm trying to discourage you from re-organizing. <br />Pat<br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348317753715681760.post-4930645818951604762020-06-29T19:25:06.596-05:002020-06-29T19:25:06.596-05:00Both quilts look great, but I especially love your...Both quilts look great, but I especially love your frolicking colors! <br />gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11629856023631651681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348317753715681760.post-5369289671168154362020-06-29T16:56:25.706-05:002020-06-29T16:56:25.706-05:00Wow!

I think I’ve done something similar before, only I usually have to order more fabric before I can find the missing one. I’m going to make a couple of masks today too. I’m making Oregon State masks for Erik and Mae, although I’m guessing football season will be a bust this year.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05835208971743967582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348317753715681760.post-29630009544545817292020-06-29T08:38:36.094-05:002020-06-29T08:38:36.094-05:00I did a small SAS and struggled and here you are w...I did a small SAS and struggled and here you are with a monstor one!

I'm going to have to make some more masks, too, I'm afraid, now that they are mandatory in North Carolina and the virus doesn't seem to be going away any time soon. I really hate wearing them, and I hate making them even more -- but there's nothing to be done about it besides trying to cultivate the virtue of patience... Wish me luck with THAT!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.com
