Calgary-area sewers, quilters and hobbyists are flocking to a new and urgent task — creating face masks to stop the spread of COVID-19. One Facebook group, Mask Makers YYC, has made it their goal to mobilize quick-fingered sewers across the province to make and distribute the face masks. Strips of fabric are cut and folded, ready for use in personal face masks at the Pincher Creek Hutterite Colony. A group of volunteers at the Pincher Creek Hutterite Colony works on sewing face masks for Mask Makers YYC. "And Mask Makers YYC have done an amazing job in coordinating the efforts of so many volunteers."
