Attached to this guide you will find a cutout stencil of a design by ashevillejm (https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Clo...). She has made several sizes and iterations of the mask. Here I used the regular size mask 2 design. Download and print the stencil.
-
Trace the stencil onto a piece of craft plastic or cardboard and cut it out.

Time to repurpose those old t-shirts you never wear.
-
Fold the shirt in half so that you have four layers of fabric. Pin your stencil to a patch and cut it out.
-
If any of your layers are connected, cut them apart. You should have four mask shaped cuts of cloth.
-
If you want your mask to include a graphic from the shirt, make sure to lay the stencil on that part. We will be flipping the mask inside out after we sew, so make sure the graphic is the innermost layer and will face out when you flip it inside out.
