Halloween Masks

 And you thought the mask sewing was over with. 

Darling Husband has said more than once he wanted a mask that had more coverage than the fitted masks I made a couple months ago. I made a sample last month and he has already lost it. It was time to make some more. I pulled out some fun Halloween prints and got cutting. These are made using one of the 3D patterns out there. I used the adult size from this Martelli Notions YouTube. I don't use the Martelli system but they include the sizes on the video. I used the Wrights 4.5" Easy Angle ruler to cut the corners to get the right shape. 
Here are my units stitched, turned, and pressed for the first stitching. 
I stitch the top edge, bottom edge, then the two creases. I make these with the right side up. 
I used some ear elastics I received from a friend. You can find them easily on Amazon. I've included a link below for back and white sets. The colors are pretty easy to find from there. This was a nice quick project to get moving again after spending half a day tidying up.
