A Few More Fabric Face Masks

I'm sure your social media feeds are full of face mask posts, but I just wanted to share a few more pictures of some of the fabric face masks I made for co-workers, family, and friends.

Above is a progress photo from a blue and white geometric printed mask I made where I was super happy with pattern matching around the slit in the middle.

All of my masks were made using the method I posted about: Project Homemade Face Mask. They're all breathable, cotton fabrics that are double layered and pleated. The slit in the middle allows you to add a filter to your mask for extra protection.

Malotke Writes - Updated Website

Since I have been using my photo from senior year of college (shot for the fashion show program) I had decided that maybe it was time for some new, and way more recent, photos. Pictured left is one of my favorite photos from the photography session. I've already updated my website using a bunch of the photos and I've sent them off for social media / marketing for upcoming interviews & anthologies that I'm included in. Here is a link to my writing website: Malotke Writes
