“Through the pursuit of beauty we shape the world as a home, and in doing so we both amplify our joys and find consolation for our sorrows.”
~Sir Roger Scruton
Hand Embroidered Face Masks
I recently finished a face mask for a graduate of the University of Notre Dame. The face covering is hand embroidered (cross-stitched) with navy, Kelly green, and gold threads. I used an authentic Ukrainian embroidery pattern that resembled traditional Irish & Celtic designs using Fighting Irish colors.

My masks are not surgical masks and I do not make any claims that they will protect people from the virus. Studies can’t prove that face coverings protect people from catching Covid-19, but experts believe they keep us from spreading droplets to others. With this said, my handmade masks cover the mouth, but stay a bit loose around the nose. I do this so the person wearing the mask can get fresh air. Below, I posted photos to show you how the masks fit the adult faces.
