Sew the Olson Face mask pattern (PLEASE NOTE - I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ADDING A LAYER OF NON WOVEN INTERFACING TO YOUR MASK) - https://www.sewcanshe.com/blog/simple-step-by-step-tutorial-for-the-olson-mask-pattern

I cut my templates from doeflex - you could also cut template plastic - google for the best prices.

SDX users - use black standard blade and autoblade settings. CM users - try turquoise standard blade starting at blade depth 4, pressure 1 you will need to test cut to get settings right

I use ORACAL 651 self adhesive vinyl for most of my projects, which I apply with DeTape medium tack clear transfer tape - I purchase from https://www.mdpsupplies.co.uk/ (excellent prices and good customer service)
