Evening Masks 2020 Part 2

Now I have my basic Mask design I can start adding to it.

Add Embellishments

I have found some parts of an old watch strap or bracelet that was given to me. I am going to use some of them to decorate the Mask

I Sew two to each side of the Mask. Since they have holes in I might be able to thread a cord through.

Silver Lining

Next I add a Silver Lining or more accurately a Silver Edging to the Top and Bottom of the Mask. I think that I got this from off a Christmas Gift Box.

Unpick Silver

Darn. When I try to fold the Ends of the Mask back on themselves to cover it I find that the Edge of the Silver juts out. I am going to have to Unpick it and Resew.

Shorten Silver

I have now Shortened the Silver. I wasn’t an easy job because the Edging is actually not a complete block but more of a ladder structure.

Folded Ribbon

Finally I can Fold and Sew the Ends of the Mask. I decided against cord through the Embellishments and instead have added Black Ribbon at the sides.
