How to Make a Face Mask with Pocket for Filter from Cotton T-Shirt & Woven Fabric - Make to DONATE!

ADD- ON Step to SEW DOWN TIES for Easier Washing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-ZNYy1GA6k - NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR N95/COTTON FABRIC MASKS ARE NOT A GOOD IDEA FOR HEALTHCARE WORKERS WEARING THEIR ENTIRE SHIFTS (due to possible moisture build up, not getting them sanitized properly between shirts, etc...) - This style in Best for LIMITED USE with the Addition of NEW/LEAN in a non-woven filters, and REQUIRE proper sanitizing washing between wearings.
This is a NEW Face Mask version with a POCKET to add non-woven fabric filter! Plus it is quicker and easier to sew :) I show how to make both Cotton T-Shirt (knit) and Woven Cotton Fabric versions - my goal was to make a good working mask with materials have at home now/don't need to buy or order - PLEASE MAKE to DONATE To PLACES in NEED of MASKS
**DISCLAIMERS**
- The Purpose of this Tutorial is for people to Make to DONATE to places needing/asking for Face Masks - NOT to SELL! Contact places before delivering to make sure they want them & how they plan to sanitize them

- STAY HOME AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!! You can make a mask to wear for needed grocery store trips, but DO NOT make to so you can go out in public/crowded places more - STAY IN! & sew :) (and if you do use them, please remember to keep washing them in hot water!)

- Only use new/clean disposable filters* & REPLACE them with new/clean ones after use/soiled. *Non-woven cloths are best: tissue, dried wet wipes, clean rags, sewing interfacing

- If you have a better mask, USE it! plus LIMIT time wearing a face mask with HIGH filtration (don't add in too much filtration to this face mask pocket)– the more filtration, the harder it is to breathe and can lead to breathing problems (because of this, people with heart disease should not wear high filtration face masks)
Here is the research I used to determine the best materials - this article recommended 100% Cotton T-Shirts, 2 layers - as it is breathable while also filtering at least 50% of viruses-sized particles on its own and hopefully MORE by adding the non-woven fabric filter in the pocket: https://smartairfilters.com/en/blog/best-materials-make-diy-face-mask-virus/?fbclid=IwAR2yKg_fIdDFiri_Iewpy6_CpVEPvdOQKTBJ4_1ONkHA-e-Oxj0JmIavWfY
