Cyndia Rodriguez is putting her sewing passion to work after her son asked for a mask and saw a need.
"I literally spent a month and a half sewing 16 hours a day," Rodriguez said.
In all, Rodriguez said she made 400 masks with more on the way.
Next week, she's holding a free mask-masking class at 310 Gallery on Morton Street in Richmond.
"There's so much negative in the world that you have to spread love and positivity and show people that things are good," she said.

"We were called to serve," Patton said. "We've got to take care of our community."
