I like this type of facemask .so far it’s my favourite. You explain everything very well. I’m a novice when it comes to sewing but I could follow your instructions very easily.I would love to see how to add another layer inside though. As three layers seem to be the recommendation. Maybe an updated video ......please
Hi Brenda!! Apologies for my late reply and firstly thank you for your kind feedback on my video! I am happy it could be of assistance! Yes it’s hard to know how many layers to add with the face mask for optimum protection, but from using the face masks a lot more now (UK Covid rules now) I think any more layers would be far too hot and make it hard to breath, even with cotton fabric! But with the added option of adding a filter inside in this face mask you can add as many extra layers as you like which is kind of a happy medium :D Please do subscribe to my channel and I would love your feedback on more of my videos! Wishing you the best of health, MrsHomeMakerUK
So easy to understand and sew. Measurements clearly given and above all no background music which can be very disconcerting. Thank you Mrs Home Maker UK.
Thank you so much, that is ever so kind of you Janet :') Please do subscribe to my channel I would love that! I hope you are in the best of health, Kind Regards, MrsHomeMakerUK
I like this pattern the best of all I've tried. My one suggestion is to sew a piece of bias tape on the top back for the wire, leaving one end open so you can remove the wire when you wash the mask.
That's a really great idea! I can tell you are a skilled sewist! Thank you for your comment Malindahl1, if I am to make an updated video of this in the future I will add your great bias tape idea for sure!!

Thank you so much. I've just finished 3 for our family. Some places require it, some don't. Either way we are prepared. You did a beautiful job with your mask and video.
Thank you so much for your feedback and kind review of my video Sandy :D and yes I agree it is better to have these facemasks even if not all places require one! Take care, warm regards MrsHomeMakerUK
Thank you for a really good explanation. I have made some for the family. They are a little too small for my husband do you have dimensions to make bigger ones. I am a novice sewer. Thank you
Hi Melanie! Apologies for my delayed reply!! To make this bigger to fit your husband just add 1-2 cm on each side of the measurement, or if it needs more than 3cm extra on both sides (but I think then that may be a little too big!). I hope that helps! Kind Regards, MrsHomeMakerUK
I am sorry but I am so confused on the part of part 4:41 on this video, do I sew on each side of the opening or just one side? Do I sew on each side of the opening or just the right side? Help I like this tutorial and I want to do it right Thank you Nellie
Hi! Apologies for my delayed reply! Ok, so to clarify the steps at 4:41: Firstly, Yes you sew on each side of the opening. The point in sewing on both sides is to keep the edges on both side securely down and in place as these edges are on the top of the face mask and need to be securely finished. If you look at minute 4:53 you will see I have sewn the top stitch on the left hand side and I am doing the same on the right side of the opening (the opposite side). And then at 5:00 I show you how it should look and both sides have been top stitched :D I hope that is clear!??? And please do let me know if you need any further clarification! Kind Regards to you, MrsHomeMakerUK
Glad it was helpful Annamaria! Thank you for watching!! Please do subscribe to my channel for more content just like this! Kind Regards, MrsHomeMakerUK
You are so welcome! And thank you for your kind feedback! sorry this is 2 weeks delayed, but I hope you managed to make a facemask with my tutorial?? :D All the best, MrsHomeMakerUK
example is like 14:19 when you put on binding, the fabric gets so thick over the pleated areas that my needle just pounds on the fabric but doesn't get through the fabrics.
Hello and apologies for my delayed reply, what type of fabric are you using, as cotton (even when doubled up should be fine). OK so my advice is when you start sewing use the 'wheel' (that moved your needle down into place) of your sewing machine to make stitches and once it is around 1cm in from the edge then continue sewing by using your sewing machine foot, sometimes some sewing machines are a little sensitive by the edge of a fabric and thus require you to start off by using the wheel and then using the sewing machine foot. I hope that was clear? let me know!! MrsHomeMakerUK
@Eunhye Lee: Your machine may require 'stitching tension' adjustment. Instructions to do so should be in your Sewing Machine manual. Hope this helps. *Tip: Sometimes even lengthening the stitch helps. Just ensure you back stitch though.
Hi Cathi! I am so sorry for my late reply! I have only just seen your comment!! You need to push the underside out of the way of the topside, you do this at the start and as you sew along, also if you have a sewing machine with a removable table/arm then take that off to help push the underside out of the way. Was that clear? I hope that helps! Kind Regards, MrsHomeMakerUK
@@shirleygreen9059 Hi Shirley! Please see my reply to Cathi, I have briefly explained you need to move the underside out of the way as you sew along the top edge of the opening :)
This is the best tutorial I've seen! Do you happen to recall where you got that pattern fabric from? I'm interested in getting some gingham floral fabric- thanks :)
Hi Julie! Thank you for your kind feedback! I am glad my video could be of assistance! :D Are you based in the UK or abroad? I have a small amount of the yellow fabric left that I can ship to you! it's just a bit under the measurement that i have given in this video but you could always combine it with a light yellow cotton to match at the edges!? The fabric is from a fabric mill in Italy and they don't sell to the public, I just had the fabric from when I used to work in the textile industry and had a small sample of it!

Hi First your video tutorial for making a face mask is the best on here. Clear at a nice pace to follow thank you. I did see your reply re a mask for a child on one of the comments.

Hi Alison Wing! Many thanks for your kind feedback!! Wow the best on here! That was a lovely boost for my confidence as a new youtuber! Please don’t forget to subscribe to my channel for more content just like this!! In terms of taking 2 inches off both sides I think perhaps that was in response to a lady asking to size down the mask for a super tiny human (toddler size) but yes 2cm off each side is more accurate for a kid age size, again it all depends on the size of the head of the child so a little trial and error is needed :)) Warm Regards, MrsHomeMakerUK

Thurok Jupiter thank you for the tip and yes both methods work, my method just ensures that the wire is doubly secure in place because of the sewn lines above & then below the wire :)
Thurak Jupiter Here is an off topic tip I learned recently. Write that number like this. 14:40. It will be blue after you send and when it's clicked on the video will go to the place you are referring to. Click on mine 14:40 and then look up at the video. Video will be at that mark.
Hi there! What dimensions of fabric would you recommend for a childs mask? Thank you for your helpful video, it's very easy to follow!!! Greetings from Austria and stay healthy! :)
Hi There! Thank you so much and I love the video and completed the pattern. Do you happen to have a copy of the pattern to share. Thanks again and God bless.
Hi myahcobra! Thank you for your kind comment and I am very happy it was of benefit to you!! :D I don't have a pattern for this mask as it doesn't really need one as you just cut a square shape out from your fabric and then go on to sew it, add the wire, elastics etc. as per the video. Thank you again for commenting on my video and please don't forget to subscribe to my channel for more content just like this! I also uploaded a new video of a face mask with ties! All the best, MrsHomeMakerUK
Mary Dickerson Hi Mary :) the wire is called “twist and tie” wire or even “gardening wire”, I just bought some from Robert Dyas, I’ll post the link now..
www.robertdyas.co.uk/kitchen-craft-twist-tie-dispenser It’s a good deal! 30m for £1.99 :) Also EBay sell it for a couple of pounds more. I hope that helps :)
Mary Dickerson For the masks for myself and my family we are just using a sheet of tissue as we are unable to purchase the special filters here in the UK as everything in the shops here is pretty much gone from the shelves! I would recommend another sheet of fabric/tissue (if you can spare it because that is also running short everywhere!)/purchase the filters online if available!! Stay safe and in the best of health :)
Im sorry, am I truly the only one so stupid I can't figure out what the actual fresh hell is going on at 5:05 ? Has anyone actually sewn directly along w this video? What shes saying versus what shss showingas a result doesnt exist. She says to sew a straight vertical line from top to bottom...then shows an item with totally separate layer that arent sewn together at all. ?????? :(
Hi! I am sorry you are confused by the video/step.. perhaps I can clarify.. Around 5:05 this is the “top stitching” it is just a process to finish the edge and not sew all the layers completely together. Hope that helps? Sorry for my late reply! Take care wherever you are in the world 🌟
Between 4:41 and 4:45. You show, and say, with words,and your fingers, to sew straight down on folded fabric. And then you show, and point, at an item that is clearly NOT sewn with the two halves folded. wtf? You said to sew it folded but then show it sewn unfolded and a magical result that doesnot come from the actual instructions you gave.:/
I think I see where the confusion has occurred.. when I first point and show and say make sure it’s folded straight I mean to get it straight first but then you will see when I’m at the sewing machine I have it unfolded like previously when I was pointing. The idea is to flatten the fabric to rid it of creases etc. and then at the machine sew each edge that face the hole/opening separately. Hope that helped??
To put it simply I should have pointed at the edge and then opened it out and pointed at the same edge on both sides to show you where you will sew when at the machine. Apologies!
I like this type of facemask .so far it’s my favourite. You explain everything very well. I’m a novice when it comes to sewing but I could follow your instructions very easily.I would love to see how to add another layer inside though. As three layers seem to be the recommendation.

Make sure your needle is sharp, I had this same problem until I changed it out for a new very sharp one.
How do you manage to sew along the "opening " edges without catching the underside fabric (since the piece is basically a "tube")?

Thank you for your well wishes and greetings from Austria!
@@allthingsmumlifeUK Thank you very much for your answer!! 👌🏻🤗
My pleasure :)
I hope I helped,
Warm regards
Hi There! Thank you so much and I love the video and completed the pattern. Do you happen to have a copy of the pattern to share. Thanks again and God bless.
Hi myahcobra!
Thank you for your kind comment and I am very happy it was of benefit to you!! :D
I don't have a pattern for this mask as it doesn't really need one as you just cut a square shape out from your fabric and then go on to sew it, add the wire, elastics etc. as per the video.
Thank you again for commenting on my video and please don't forget to subscribe to my channel for more content just like this! I also uploaded a new video of a face mask with ties!
All the best,
MrsHomeMakerUK

You can use pipe cleaners from dollar tree
I bought a spool of garden wire at dollar tree for $1
Is the pocket opening the front or back?
Hi Terri,
the pocket opening is on the front side directly infront of the mouth.
On the inside of the fabric of course,
did I explain that clearly?:)
P.s not “front” as in the outside of the fabric, you can’t see the pocket from the outside of the mask :)
Inside..the opening of the pocket is under the wire 😷
Thankyou
You’re welcome 😊
What kind of filter did you use
Mary Dickerson
For the masks for myself and my family we are just using a sheet of tissue as we are unable to purchase the special filters here in the UK as everything in the shops here is pretty much gone from the shelves!
I would recommend another sheet of fabric/tissue (if you can spare it because that is also running short everywhere!)/purchase the filters online if available!!
Stay safe and in the best of health :)
I also just had an idea that a round cotton pad would also be good for the filter :)
Some people say coffee filter is ok or just use flannel
You can use blue shop towels as a filter
I know this is going to sound gross, but some people are using those pantey liners inside the pocket. Seems gross I know but they are unused.
hi..
is nose wire safe .?
Ricky I think the wires are safe as that is what they have on regular mask
What type of wire to use?
👍 👍 👍👍 👍 👍 Merci! top!!!
Merci from the UK! :D MrsHomeMakerUK
Im sorry, am I truly the only one so stupid I can't figure out what the actual fresh hell is going on at 5:05 ? Has anyone actually sewn directly along w this video? What shes saying versus what shss showingas a result doesnt exist.
She says to sew a straight vertical line from top to bottom...then shows an item with totally separate layer that arent sewn together at all.
?????? :(
Hi! I am sorry you are confused by the video/step.. perhaps I can clarify..
Around 5:05 this is the “top stitching” it is just a process to finish the edge and not sew all the layers completely together.
Hope that helps?
Sorry for my late reply!
Take care wherever you are in the world 🌟
Between 4:41 and 4:45. You show, and say, with words,and your fingers, to sew straight down on folded fabric. And then you show, and point, at an item that is clearly NOT sewn with the two halves folded. wtf? You said to sew it folded but then show it sewn unfolded and a magical result that doesnot come from the actual instructions you gave.:/
I think I see where the confusion has occurred..
when I first point and show and say make sure it’s folded straight I mean to get it straight first but then you will see when I’m at the sewing machine I have it unfolded like previously when I was pointing.
The idea is to flatten the fabric to rid it of creases etc. and then at the machine sew each edge that face the hole/opening separately.
Hope that helped??
To put it simply I should have pointed at the edge and then opened it out and pointed at the same edge on both sides to show you where you will sew when at the machine. Apologies!
