So I’ve got severe palmar hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating of the hands) and I’m considering going all the way to California to get a relatively new surgery done to help it. I’ve had lots of people tell me it’s stupid to get a surgery for sweaty hands, so let me explain this to you motherfuckers. My hands are literally so sweaty that if I wear gloves and then hold my hand straight up, water will fall out of it. I can hardly ever play my piano because it just turns into a slip and slide. I’ve had to buy elbow length gloves just so I can draw and write without getting the paper soaked. My hands are very difficult to use most of the time. So yeah. The point of this post is, don’t judge people’s medical conditions if you haven’t experienced them. Please and thank you.

Here it is! The instructions to make a pieced and quilted plague doctor mask!

Just as a heads up, this pattern is not really recommended for beginners. There is not a whole lot of explanation of the basic techniques, and it requires a fair bit of precision, two types of fusible interfacing, and an assumption that you can keep a consistent seam allowance and do some hand sewing and know when to sew things right sides together and such.

I am not promising anything, different methods will yield different results, I have never made a pattern exactly as it was written and neither should you. If you want something the same as the next person, go to the shops.

Actually, nevermind, this is a quarantine craft, stay home.

If someone hands you a hundred skittles and tells you three of them are poison, you still probably wanna avoid the skittles.
