BAC and fabric artists are firing up their sewing machines.  Over 10 artists from around the county (Southport, Oak Island, St James, Holden Beach, Supply, Navassa & Cedar Grove) are making masks for Covid-19 to help our emergency responders and front line service medical staff with keeping their PPE in play longer.  Materials have been donated by residents and businesses including Carolina Shirt Company, Awesome Website & Coastal Race Productions and Elemental Horizons.

Want to help? Sew? Cut? Donate Materials? We’ll take it! We do Porch and Parking lot exchanges!

Know of someone who needs a mask? All donated materials are going to medical and frontline services folks first for FREE.

However some of artists do have sets from personal materials for people who are working in storefronts, clerks, housekeeping and such for minimal donations.

Here is what we need:

TIES: 1/4″ elastic or 2mm elastic paracord or seam /bias tape

THREAD: cotton or all purpose – any colors

FABRIC: 100% Cotton

Have a functioning Sewing Machine you’d like to lend or donate? –  we have sewers without machines.
