Today I found there is a way to help the supply of face masks that are in short supply.
Update: Today an article relevant to Australian conditions came in The Conversation Newsletter
Bonnie Hunter on Quiltville.com is continuously full of good ideas and has linked to patterns for either rectangular face masks or shaped face masks.
While I know that it is also touch that spreads disease, in the end it is all about droplet infection. So make them for yourself and friends.
Pattern 1: a rectangular face mask
Pattern 2: a shaped face mask
While these are not surgical masks they will certainly help keep you aware that there is a virus out there and we are trying to stem its spread.
If anyone knows an Australian need for these we could even make excess and sent them through.
We started in 2007 with a quilt made one very rainy weekend with friends from across Sydney and across the world connected by patchwork and quilting. Our members have included quilters and novices from far and wide - NSW, Victoria, Western Australia and Queensland (Australia), New Zealand, Massachusetts and Connecticut (USA), N.Ireland, Cornwall, Shropshire and Wales (UK). All our quilts are for charity, either raffled to earn money or donated directly to a nearby charity.
