Frances is one of our favorites. She talks to us about life right now, and the new quilt fiction podcast, season 2. For more go to http://www.quiltfiction.com. There's video too. So you can see her reading the book, Aunt Jane of Kentucky. I so adore it. She is also the host of the Off-KilterQuilt (When a Straight Line's a State of mind).

We talk to the students at Tulane that have been on the frontlines of mask making with me. Over the last month, I've been working with students and others to organize making homemade masks. We've received two grants, one from the Phyllis M. Taylor Center for Social Innovation and Design Thinking , and the other from the Newcomb Institute. We talk about the work and plans for the future, and life as a Tulane student during Covid-19. For more, see https://law.tulane.edu/news/law-professor-and-truck-driver-join-make-million-masks-day.

“We've made over 1600 masks the past 8 days, giving them away to any who need. We normally make mattresses, so we are using the same materials to make facemasks. A LOT of volunteers have stepped up & done some Home Sewing. It's been an amazing experience! For more on mattresses go to, https://comfortking.net/main/. “ When we talked the number had almost doubled. We talk to Chris about the masks from Comfort King Mattress Factory, the army of sewists helping him make that happen, and of course, a lot about mattresses. (How could we not?).
