-	[title] Gather tools ~~and supplies~~
+	[title] Gather your tools
	[* 1] Start by gathering all the tools you need to make the mask.
	[* 2] A *sewing machine*. Pretty much any basic machine will be fine since we won't be doing anything fancy.
	[* 10] If you don't have a machine, you can do all the sewing by hand, but it will take a lot longer.
	[* 3] *Thread*. Any kind or color is fine, as long as it works with your machine.
	[* 4] *Scissors*. They need to be able to cut through several layers of fabric.
	[* 5] A *pencil*, or anything that can leave a light mark on fabric.
	[* 6] *Pins*. You only need 5 or so. The tomato is optional, but adorable.
	[* 7] *Tape measure*. Nice to have, but you can probably get by without one.
