Sewers Needed For Face Masks
Sewers are needed to assist in the making of masks for our most vulnerable population. We know that sewers talk to other sewers so we’re hoping you can spread the word. We do have material, elastic, and patterns with pockets (which need to be followed) for both youth and adults that we can get to you for the making of the masks. If you are able to help, please contact us to make arrangements for getting supplies. Thank you in advance for helping in this most important task.
