In brief

You’ll sew a simple, no-sew-alternative-friendly face mask with elastic straps in under 10 minutes—ideal for quick compliance with local guidelines. The tutorial covers cutting fabric to 9x6 inches and attaching 6.5-inch (women) or 7-inch (men) elastic, making it a fast, reusable option for reducing face-touching and containing personal germs.

Description from the creator

Blog post with more! melaniekham.com/homemade-face-mask/

I have been hesitant to post a tutorial for these because there has been a lot of debate around how effective they are. However, last night our mayor requested that everyone heading out of their homes wear a mask like this. So, now that our leaders are asking us to wear them, I hope that you find these useful. Please stay safe everyone!

These will not protect you from the virus, they help keep our germs to ourselves and from touching our faces while out and comply with the requests from our leaders to wear these. Wash your hands, friends!
