So I first whipped a few of these up about 4 years ago when going to a Doctors + Nurses party. I made the tutorial a while ago ((I will replace the awesome MsPaint skills with photos)).
Pretty simple?

-
Measure across your face the width you want the mask. And measure from just over your nose to about ur chin
-
Cut a rectangle of fabric the size needed. Also, measure aorund your head from where the top of the mask will sit. Don't forget to add some for ties. Measure also where the bottom of your mask will sit ((Somewhere under your chin)) and around the back too.
Cut one length of bias binding for eachmeasurement. Cut two lengths of bias binding about 2/3ds the of your measurement b -
make little pleats/pinches/gathers down the side of your mask and stitch them in place. This way, you mask has a little shaping to it.
-
If you're going to put something on the front of the mask, do it now. Or later. it doesn't really matter. I just used my sewing machine to make a ragged x.
-
Add the binding. Stitch the shorter lengths on first, and then the longer ones. The longest length should be at the top, the other one at the bottom.
