BOMs Away - Making Masks-Masks-Masks, with a wee work on blocks


Welcome to the link-up for BOMs Away Mondays!
Where we share what we're doing on a BOM-type project 
so they don't stall out in UFO-land!
(Linky at the bottom.)

I've been making masks for our county's first responders.  
They sent out a request for area sewists to make masks to hold the medical filters they were able to obtain. They gave us the fabric, elastic, and nose wiresd. I did get approval to supplement with a certain fabric from my stash as a lining (instead of folding over their fabric), so that I can double the masks from their material. Adds a seam for me, but hey - it's worth it.


Lots and lots of masks.

The only work I got finished on my quilt was to connect the star corners to the 36 arcs for the completed central blocks:

We would love to see any BOM work you're done lately.

Kate over at Katie Mae Quilts has joined me in hosting this meet-up, 
and linking up from either end puts you on the party at both sides.

  1. Wowzer! Your 36 curves and paper pieced blocks look perfect and lovely!

    Lots and lots of masks - yup! The quilt world is now a mask world. I still love reading about and seeing everyone's way of helping out!
