Making masks
ALL HANDS ON DECK!
Many hands working together will contribute to making masks for essential workers and individuals in need.
If you would like to sew masks with RRQ, see the information below. Be sure to contact us if you have any questions.
Happy Sewing!
The Monmouth County Masketeers need our help. They have received requests from a local food bank and from a senior living center for a total of 400 masks!
There are many video tutorials available online.
Masks can be any shape but need to have a pocket for a filter. There are numerous videos online on how to make masks with filter pockets. Here is one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gcLp0y-Mfg
