Thanks.
This is the video of the surgeon general making a face mask. No sewing required.

a streak of brown shoe polish doubles the effectiveness. After reading this thread, I now understand why shampooo bottles have written instructions.

Check with some of the churches they are making cloth masks & remind the people the yell at you that it only protects them from spreading the virus it does not protect them from getting it!

Nobody has the right to yell at you. This is a free country and if you don't want to wear one that's your prerogative. If you get sick then it's on you.
