Template for a duck bill

Some People prefer to tie on the masks. Hi Phyllis, you should be fine with the sizes. Look for the latest one called the Mask with nose bar slot and 2 filter options.

Same shape but with the extras. Hi sorry please ignore my previous comment. Are the sizes suitable for asian fits? Hi Angela, I only use interfacing to give thin fabrics a bit more structure. We sewers mainly use it only for that purpose. Interfacing is usually ironed if it is iron on interfacing onto the fabric, then cut out. No need for a separate pattern.

If you bought non iron on interfacing, then just cut it out in the same shape as the main fabric pattern. The interfacing does not replace a filter pocket. Say your design has 3 layers, the main fabric, lining and filter pocket.

If you iron on the interfacing onto the main fabric, you will need a lining to cover this since you can see it, but you will also need a filter pocket to hold a disposable filter. Does that make sense? Try looking at my tutorial, Mask with nose bar slot and 2 filter options. You can see me explaining at the beginning. Hope this helps. Do you have a pattern for using the interfacing? Hi SL, glad I could help, and thanks for the support. Just take the lining layer out and not the filter lining, then you can choose to insert a filter.

As for the summer months, I recommend trying the Cover Mask pattern. Covers under the chin and all the right places, but also very spacious. Hi, I wanted to update you on my mask making!

I have made 12 of your Duckbill mask with nose bar and filter slot so far! I just got a message from my mother-in-law saying they were the only masks she likes wearing as she can breathe in it she is asthmatic.

I wanted to say thanks again for providing such easy patterns and clear detailed videos. Or would it not have the support to retain the shape? Anyway, hope you and your family are safe and thanks again.

Thank you very much for sharing your mask patterns, they have helped me a lot to make several masks for me. With your permission I share the link to your website on my blog. Hi Alexis, 1. Have you clipped triangles on the seams? It helps it lie flat. Press the seams open with an iron. Hold the mask upwards, but only the bit you need to sew is flat in the machine under the presser foot.

Hope this is clear enough for you to understand? Otherwise clip the seam allowance and iron to one side. That way you can sew only once through the fabric to catch the seam allowance underneath. Or just clip the seam allowance and iron the seam open. No need to sew it. I did not do to the Mask with 2 filter options. Have a look at the post. Same style, but different take. My comment auto corrected. I just meant the seam that runs parallel down the front of the mask.

Thank you so much for this pattern. I have been looking for a free one like this that I can print…and bless you for the extra-large. It will be put to good use. Thank you! Hi Marie, I had only 2 people contact me about this. Found out they were way over 6 foot tall.

If you message me on ShannieMakes facebook page, I can show you. Mask with 2 Filter Lining Options. All the best. Many,many thanks for your pattern and video…I am about to make 6 masks for my great grand kiddies. They will love this style. Hi Nancy, Rouleau Loop Turner, or just loop turner. On amazon or any haberdashery store. Very handy for turning straps. Hi SL, most people use the non woven interfacing because it is readily accessible.

Usually woven is used in jackets and a bit pricey. Not all places stock this. Anything is better than nothing, but you do know light weight and medium weight interfacing allows air through, right? Just do a quick test. She started kindergarten last year, but only had 4 months of schooling. Doing this reminds me of when I was teaching in the UK.

I loved my job. So I do what I do. Glad you guys appreciate it. Keeps me going! Thanks for your quick reply and clarifying things! I do have one more question, the fusible interfacing you use. I came across woven and non-woven. Which should one use for face masks? Does it really matter? Do you think it does anything as a filter? Thanks again, I really appreciate you responding to all our questions here on this site and helping to create patterns and videos for all to use. Hi SL, use interfacing if you like or your fabric requires it.

Adapt it to your needs. Most of my tutorials I teach people to do things in different steps and use different methods.

Let me know how you get on. Hi SL, the 3 pleats require the binding because you cannot fold pleats under because it will be toooooooooo thick to sew, especially if you are a beginner. Same as the Duckbill Style if you are using 3 layers of thick fabric. Let me know if you have any questions. But I was wondering, is there an easier way to make this without having a separate piece of material for the binding?

If so, could you explain how to do it out of one piece and just fold over? For a beginner like myself, the extra step of the binding seems harder. Also, I noticed the 3 pleat uses an interfacing, should or can the duckbill version have an interfacing as well? Thanks in advance! Would you be able to email me the Duckbill face mask pattern please? Thanks Pam for your support. Do whatever you like with my patterns. They are there for you to use and adapt to your skill.

As they say, there are more than one way to fry an egg! Many thanks for your patterns and tutorials I have made both the 3 layer pleated face mask as well as the duckbill, I however altered the pattern slightly for the duckbill one leaving off the binding but adding on that extra bit to the outer layer fabric but keeping the 2 inner layers to your measurements, I then just folded over that extra bit to make the casing for the elastic which was quicker for me and less stress on my poor 38 year old sewing machine which does not want to sew over so many thicknesses!

BTW we live in South Africa so your patterns are floating around down this end of the world too! Thanks Pam. Hi Tylstenie, do you have a picture of the mask you want? If I see the picture, I might be able to draft up a pattern. There are also a few different Duckbills out there. Otherwise if you can get a mask and take a picture of it with a ruler placed directly on top of it for me, I could possibly make a pattern for you.

Send to me shanniemakes gmail. Shan x. I am wondering if anyone has tried these as a cover to a medical duckbill mask and knows which size works for that purpose.. My daughter was to be fitted for an N95 mask but they have not found a size which fits her properly so now they are thinking of trying a duckbill mask. I have already made 6 covers for the N95 mask in antisipation of her getting the N95 but now that has all changed.

They are so limited they only give each nurse one mask which they have to reuse so she wants covers to change at least the outside between every pts.

They take too long to write since I have too many patterns. I have started, so hopefully soon. Everything takes too long with a small child about. I could do the lazy instruction which most people would do. Most experience sewers will understand, but to some people I need to prompt them when to back stitch and which sides to sew and fold.

I will be rolling out the new instructions soon. How do I print out the written instructions for your two layer Duckbill face mask and the one for use with filter? Hi Yoanna, the proper Gore-Tex is a 2 way fabric. If you stretch it over a hot cup of water, you should see steam coming through. It allows you to sweat through and not allowing rain come in. No one wants to wear a non breathable coat going up a mountain. The best design for this fabric is a design with a flat front and preferably no seams at the front, as seam stitching creates holes.

I do suggest people to do their on research on the best fabric, and execution of the masks. Gore-Tex should be on the outside. If you are one of these people, then it should at least be the second layer. Hi Mandy, to be honest I have only made these for the adults in my family. I used 60cm for the adults. Not sure for kids. Sorry not much help if you are mass producing. I have only adults and a 3 year old in the family. No larger kids to measure on. May be start with 40cm and check a few kids.

They are amazing! This pattern is my favorite. Thanks so much for sharing. Question: your patterns recommend Gore-Tex but when I put it against my face, it is like plastic. Not breathable at all. How is it suitable for mask material? Does it work for some patterns and not for others? Which layer, inner or outer, should the Gore-Tex be? It is the latest post. On the hot page, left of the yellow one. The mask that is white with black, blue, red and yellow cats.
