Now I feel very dowdy!

These folks made my generic blue, paper masks seem very dull and ordinary.

    Those masks are hilarious, Yvonne. With shirts to match! James and I found some masks made with a Hawaiian print of a hula dancer on it. They seem to make people smile – although sometimes it’s hard to tell. 🙂 ~Terri

      Hi Terri. It’s fun to see people wearing different masks, most seem to be taking it all in their strides.

      There was a recent report that we have had a 99% reduction in the incidence of flu this year, a little silver lining.

    Have you seen the ones that are a runny nose? Great for ensuring others maintain social distancing!

    I told Mr ET I was going to make us a couple of masks each and he said he didn’t want a boring one. He wanted one with a big smile on it. He might have to take what he gets because I don’t want to spend all day on them. I hope you are all managing to stay safe and well and keep your sanity while all this continues to unfold. I think everyone is doing an amazing job under very difficult circumstances and I’m glad I don’t have to do the politicians’ job.

      I am so glad that our Premiers are keeping things as steady as they can, in the circumstances. Dan Andrews, our Premier hasn’t missed a day of fronting the press; he looks very weary.

      Tell us what you end up with for mask designs.

        He’s doing a great job and showing so much determination and loyalty. He does look very tired. Yes, there have been mistakes made but also lessons learned in what is a day by day situation. We’re very happy with Annastacia’s performance too and glad she’s stood up to the constant hounding of the media and other Premiers. It’s funny that all they talk about is QLD’s border closures when all the other states are doing the same thing. So annoying. If they asked most ordinary people they would find we are all very happy with how things are.

        I already made two masks for my daughter who lives in Sydney using the free pattern on the Spotlight website and she said they worked fine and are quite comfortable. So I’ll go with that again and choose some funky fabrics. My mum has asked for some for her and Dad so I’ll do a production line.

        Can we swop him for ours. Bois is way out of his depth.

    Very handy for disguising one’s transition into a wolf. Making a note of this.

      I’m glad I stopped and trotted after them, to get permission to take their photos. I’ll bet they attracted lots of attention in Coles today.

      I am so happy that our Dan is not being pushed around by the Canberra bully boys!
