Snohomish County manufacturers sew 27,000 masks for nurses

MUKILTEO — Danica Chadwick returned home from work at the hospital the same day that bars, gyms and many other businesses were ordered to close their doors to stop the spread of COVID-19.

She’s a nurse manager at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. She told her husband, Colin Chadwick, that protective gear was running out, especially face masks.

“I said, ‘Someone call me, we can make those,’ ” said Colin Chadwick, who owns Terrene Inc., a fabrication company in Mukilteo that specializes in laser work.

In the first week, workers there made more than 27,000 masks for Providence hospitals, as part of its 100 Million Masks Challenge.
