Quilters & Sewers Unite - Help our Hospitals and Medical Personnel

From Lisa Spalding at the Quilt Foundry in Maumee:
Today on Channel 13 I saw a story about quilters making facemasks for doctors. I called Toledo Hospital and they were pretty excited when I told them I could reach out to 1500 sewers through my e-mail. Below is the e-mail I received from Ashley Fritz. There is a link you can fill out if you are interested in helping out.
They can deliver supplies to your home, but I also volunteered to have some dropped off at the shop for people to pick up there. When I opened the link it looked like there was a place to write a comment. You might want to let them know if you can pick up at the shop to save them from driving all over Toledo.

FROM: Ashlie Fritz
System Volunteer Coordinator & Experience Specialist
ProMedica Service Excellence
ProMedica is looking for people to volunteer to sew N-95 mask covers to help bridge the gap that may happen soon at our healthcare system. These reusable covers will be washed and sanitized between patients.
I am looking for those who have a sewing machine and are willing to sew these mask covers in their homes – to remain socially distant and keep everyone protected. We are compiling materials and a pattern which we will supply to any interested in helping out.
Here's the link to volunteer to make masks:
