Donegal patchworkers doing their bit in time of crisis

When the word came from Government to cocoon, some of the 20 or so members of the Clonmany patchwork group in north Donegal found themselves confined to home.

The group normally meet on Monday nights in the extensive fabric shop in the Clonmany Community Centre where the doors are now closed to all.

Go hiontach!

Any hope of a sewing pattern for this?

Will hospitals be allowed to take them though? I would have thought with the risk of contamination that they wouldn’t be able to accept them. It’s a fantastic idea though

Mighty!!!

Fair play ladies 💕

Hi girls Give us lots of lovely colourful masks via on line ordering and I hope you make lots of money !

Well done Donegal women. This is also helpful 💜

Bravo 💜

Anti bacterial does not impact a virus.

I just don't own a sewing machine, that was my problem.

Well I was only thinking and looking into that myself earlier

There are lots of sewing machines out there. With the right materials we could join forces and help the drive for masks.

Also my friend in Manchester is working away on sewing face masks...the donations collected are sent to the ICU of Parma hospital in Italy 😍

Love it, Donegal ladies, this is fantastic!

That's amazing ❤️❤️❤️ love this country

Where can one purchase Waterproof interfacing /antibacterial material?
