***Sew Masks***

The Sewing Masks Project in So VT/SW NH Area would like to invite you to join us! We’ve made over 11,000 masks so far, and counting! We can offer you resources such as kits*, fabric and elastic, help you answer any questions you may have about sewing masks, and offer moral support and camaraderie along the way. *(Kits for kids’ masks may be available at some of the supply depots. Check here to find out: https://tinyurl.com/y7f5x46o)

Sign up to sew for a school on our signup sheet here: https://signup.com/go/cLBaftz so that we can keep track of how many masks have been donated to each school so far, and which sizes of mask are still needed.
