I just made one of these, a perfect fit. I just had to adjust the length of the continuous tie from 37’ to 45’ just so that it fits comfortably over my afro 😁. Thanks so much 👍💯
I loved the no-sew t-shirt mask, but I was looking for something a little more permanent as this crisis continues...thank you so much for this easy sew method! I may even break out the sewing machine and try! The fact that you walk us through with voiced instructions is one reason you are a fave! Thank you so much for teaching how to make a mask without the difficulty of pleating.
Thank you Jan for this tutorial. Great, easy instructions, especially for those of us who don't know how to use a sewing machine. I can't tell you enough how much this is appreciated! Take care, and please stay safe & healthy!
thank you so much. it looks like we'll be wearing masks for quite some time...t-shirt fabric is welcome break from the quilting fabric, and this 'gathered' is a welcome break from pleats! your teaching style is very thorough/pleasing.
Jan, thank you for such a calm, simple explaination on how to make a mask that anyone could sew. I think teachers could have their students make the in class (maybe 3rd grade and up. ) I am going to make several - they will be much softer and more comfortable than the ones I made from quilting cotton. Thank you again for taking the time to share. Now I am going to go back and check out your other non-mask related videos!!
as someone who can barely sew straight, and has no access to fabric right now, I think i'll hit the thrift store and buy some shirts and give it a shot
Out of all the masks I have made this t-shirt type is the most comfortable to wear. I have even made one mask from each t shirt sleeve! (I have some Xl men’s t shirts). So three masks made from one shirt.
Maskes are so easy to make. I used old t-shirts. Use the backs. It seems that part never gets dirty. Use any type of frabic.If you cannot sew use frabric glue..AWSOME ....
Just finished making this! My sewing machine was fighting with me, so I did it by hand. I'm a slow, un-skillful sewer, so it took me a little time (maybe an 45m altogether?). The mask fits great! I used a pipecleaner for the nose bendy thing, so it has a nice tight fight across the top of the face and down under the jaw. Thank you for the tutorial!
Made a few from your last video and had issues with a flap bothering me when I inhaled but still loved them. This way I am going to love even more. Thanks for sharing!
This is a very simple process to accomplish the goal - always a winner in my mind. I appreciate you sharing options to reach the same end product. Flexibility is always a plus, especially during these unprecedented times. My sewing machine (plus my hand tools and more), were stolen during a recent move. Hand sewing is necessary for now. Near the beginning of the current pandemic I had attempted to make masks to donate. My concept was not ideal - I totally over-thought everything. Thank you for sharing your simple yet very effective design via such a thorough tutorial. New subbie here.
I have made 4 of these so far with various fabric, and overall I love this idea. I do have one issue with them all: regardless of how much I cinch the strings, the bottom chin part sags down. I end up having to fold it under each time I put it on, which is a little annoying. Otherwise, though, I really appreciate this tutorial. Thank you!!!
I’ve tried several other tutorials and this one is the best. I used the T-shirt for the ties too. Since the bottom is open l think you could put a filter in. I used the stiff wire from resealable cookie bags or coffeehouse bags have a stiff tie on them. Thank you for your instructions and this pattern!!!😃
Thank you! I love the T-shirt masks best, and even though I do sew, I don’t have access to my machine right now. I modified your no-sew mask by using a few hand stitches to keep it together. Great video, great info!
I make pretty much the same mask only I have the sewing machine. I think it’s an awesome style and for someone who has no money the T-shirt mask is absolutely the answer. It’s so comfortable all my friends love them. I use a fabric for interfacing it is an oly fun product. It’s cheap and it’s recommended in some videos I have seen. You can get a roll at Walmart for two dollars plus tax and it is a very hefty roll. You can make many masks from that one roll and also it comes in many colors which is actually unimportant. Your mask is awesome I love it. Thank you for sharing your time. There are Gougers out there selling that oly fun product for $30 plus shipping which I think it’s just horrible. I bought 13 rolls in assorted colors when facemasks were First necessary. Message me if you would like a roll or two and I would love to send them to you for what I paid two dollars plus tax. Thank you again.
margie trujillo it is a Polypropylene product. I saw it advertised in some of the mask tutorials on UA-cam. It’s a great product it washes and dries well and gets softer every time you wash it which makes it more comfortable. It’s nice because it adds body to the mask. I can’t begin to use all of it because I purchased 13 rolls thinking I was going to turn out hundreds of masks. Truth is I can’t sewed that quickly I am out of practice. There are a lot of people out there price gouging for this product which makes me crazy. I hate Gaugers!!! Look it up Walmart.com. It is 3 yards x 30“. I bought assorted colors as well there is maybe six colors. If you’d like to have some be more than happy to send it to you just for what I paid but you will need to pay shipping as I am on disability. I will sell nine rolls that will leave me with four. let me know if you would like some. It was two dollars plus tax
Your video's are a keeper. I like the way you did this mask similar to one I have been making but easier. I have made several prototypes of different masks and have kept with two I like. I will be checking out more of your video's for other tips and crafts to make. Thank you!!!
@@brookecooley751 8.25 x 16.5 Fold the wide side in half an sew side seam. Instead of folding inn half again you’ll make your casings on each side. The only thing is you’ll have to hem the top and bottom of mask. If it’s T-shirt fabric. You won’t have to worry about that.
No, she only used one, square piece of t-shirt fabric. So, if you did it like her then it would have four layers regardless of the kind of fabric used. She folded the square in half, sewed the long side to make a tube, and then folded the tube in on itself, creating a square again, but with four layers.
Previous month I was able to pull my first five figure income ever!!! I've been working for this company over the web for 2 yrs now and I never been happier...

Thank you Jan, this pattern was so easy for me to follow and the masks are so comfortable.
"You can do this" lol I'd sure like to but need to watch the vid a few more times....then I might be able to get it done right. Thanks for sharing.
You can do it!!!

Watching this in the UK on a hot sunny afternoon in lockdown except for shopping and exercise. Really great easy to follow instructions
I've seen several tutorials and I really like yours. I'm going to give it a try. Thank you for your service. May God bless you and take care of you.
Thank you so much for your helpful tutorial. Everything about your video is excellent. You are GOOD. Thank you again.

I just know this will be a favourite Jan! Many thanks!
Thank you this will work for my husband and his beard. Thank you for making it simple
Recommendations when making a video for sewing, use a thread that is a different color than the fabric, that way you can see it better.
Thanks for another good video. I have been wanting to see a good version to do by hand.
I love this, but I probably won't tack the tie down because I am making these for many different people. I will also use my sewing machine!
This was super helpful and totally doable!! Thank you!!
Great video, it explained everything perfectly !
I really like this method and I am going to make some like this.
Thank you!!!!
Your video's are a keeper. I like the way you did this mask similar to one I have been making but easier. I have made several prototypes of different masks and have kept with two I like. I will be checking out more of your video's for other tips and crafts to make. Thank you!!!
This is very helpful, but hard to see because of the red thread on the red fabric (at least for a non-sewer like me!)
Thanks so much. It looks fairly easy. I will be making them.
BRAVO SUPER Félicitation,merci pour cette idée de masque épaisseurs
you are adorable and i loved the masks , thank you so much !
This looks great! Do I understand correctly that it's 4 layers in the end? It's the t-shirt tube that's then folded back on itself? Thanks!
yes, that is how you end up with four layers. :)
@@JanHowell what would the measures be if you only wanted two layers? 8.25x 8.25?
@@brookecooley751 8.25 x 16.5
Fold the wide side in half an sew side seam. Instead of folding inn half again you’ll make your casings on each side.
The only thing is you’ll have to hem the top and bottom of mask. If it’s T-shirt fabric. You won’t have to worry about that.
Thanks for giving me another way to make a face mask without a sewing machine. I'm going to share this method.👍
That's a good idea making masks I love it. 😍😍
I like this way. I have plenty of shirts.
Great tutorial ...
But I sure would love to see a more close up view of how you rolled that piece of thread and made a knot 😕
I can't make that work, either
I really like the looks of that one. I'm about to start making some and will use this idea. Thanks for sharing😊
Thank you for your detailed video!
Thank you very much. Great video
can you see light through the layers of fabric?
Good jobs 👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌
Thank you!
If you use fabric then it's half as thick as the tee shirt one right? Because the tee is front and back right?
No, she only used one, square piece of t-shirt fabric. So, if you did it like her then it would have four layers regardless of the kind of fabric used. She folded the square in half, sewed the long side to make a tube, and then folded the tube in on itself, creating a square again, but with four layers.
Thanks
Beautifullll work thanks❤️🙌👏
Can I use elastic. How long should I cut them.
Hello Jan. Is this mask 4 layered ?
yes
Great videos!!! Thanks
Thank youuuuu so muchhhhh
Followed along and SUCCESS! Thank you!
This is a new Idea. beautiful. i like this♥
Great job. Looks perfect when finished
