Is that the MBJM wonderpants pattern purps?

I’m currently making myself a drawer full, and mr panad a drawer full of her boxers. They are so comfy..and no old t-shirt is currently safe in this house, as i’ve been supplementing my jersey fabric supplies!

Purps
Speedy pants, very similar but for children, gusset isn't enclosed, only sewn on one edge. I have wonder undies for me :)

so we are now being told to wear face coverings

Are we happy that a buff works (I have loads!) or do I need to get the sewing machine out?

Where did you see that Pix? I’ve seenTfL are now advising them.

I’d have thought a buff will be fine as long as you’ve folded it to create more than one layer

I don't recall that being mentioned! Glad I asked for some from the Head when I was in school last week.

Ah, got it now. The BBC document says the government are going with "a document outlining new coronavirus lockdown rules that suggests face coverings in enclosed spaces where social distancing is not always possible".

That's OK. I was only getting proper face masks for when I drop food off for my Mum for the next two weeks in case I've picked up COV19 while in school last week and am not showing symptoms yet. No pupils or staff have had it at school so I think the risk is quite small. I always keep the correct distance when at Mum's house anyway.
