There are 3 good reasons to sew your own cover for sleep machine tubing: 1. It helps keep water from condensing in the hose. 2. If you purchase them from a medical supply they're both ugly and expensive. 3. You can match the fabric to your bedroom decor which cheers you up and is a bit less annoying to your partner. |

| I haven't included sizes or measurements as the equipment you use may be different. The main point is to sew a long tube that will be loose enough to slide on easily and be removed for laundering. Be sure to take into account that your fabric may shrink when laundered so cut generously. |
 |
| Finish with a small hem on each end. I usually do that first when the fabric is flat instead of trying to reach inside the tube and do it later but the method you choose is up to you. |

They have a cloth mask called a Sleepweaver Advance that comes in colors. I have one that is brown, but have a pink one on order for my next one
ReplyDeleteThank you. The condensation is only a problem in the winter when my room is colder, so I'll be making one.
ReplyDeleteDoes it slide down or does it stay put? My concern would be if it would stay the length of the tubing or slide around.
