I am a wife to a wonderful man and a mother to 2 terrific teenagers. I love to sew and craft.



Cloth is good for you. Soft and breathable, no plastic or chemicals next to your delicate skin.



We stumbled into reusable cloth menstrual products due to some health issues I was having and were instantly won over by the comfort. After trying several free patterns on the internet I realized that we needed something different, something just a bit narrower in the crotch and something flared on the ends because we both hate wedgies;), so after some playing I came up with the pattern that I have listed here. We also like a thin pad that is very absorbent so I use bamboo for my soaker. It absorbs well and dries quickly, and is said to have antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, which I figured was a good thing for a reusable menstrual product. Thanks to some wonderful ladies asking for different sizes I have tweaked my pattern into sizes from a tiny 5" liner up to a monster 14.5" pad.
