Thank you. I especially appreciate that you had different enough fabric patterns so seeing how you put it together is clear. I'm allergic to some of the disposables, getting an uncomfortable rash so they became a "No" for me. Following might be too much info for some... This is an upgrade for me 😅🤣 as I've been using a large safety pin on the outside of my panties to secure old white orphan socks. It has beat disposables cost wise, environment wise, & health wise and it's only been a tad rough on my underwear. I've kept them in a small solid plastic waste bin that I presoak/wash them in before putting them in with white laundry.
Watching this I thought I was in your sewing room with you. I wanted to tell you the snap was the wrong way, but then I remembered this is not live! A credit to your natural way of speaking.
I have been using and making cloth pads for about 15 years. I also make them and donate them to women's shelters. They are far superior to disposable products.
@@cindyjonsef9040 Did you still use zorb fabric on top of the changing pad or just the changing pad sandwiched btween the flannel and the cotton? Thanks
One thing I would change is not putting pins through the pul material, it makes for tiny holes for leaks, especially if you pin it several times. I use sewing clips to hold the pul and Zorb together and even for all the sewing so as not to put pin holes in the pul liner.
I was going to ask her if she had trouble with leakage from the pins. I have never made these before and read no pins in the PUL . Hoping to make some for a friend and nieces. So I am curious if pinning made a difference.
I have been on cloth for 3 years now. Remembering how I was a bit thrown at the idea of washing the whole "mess" every month, but after reading and learning theory about how to go about washing the pads, and making my own test pads from upcycling, I never went back. It is easy, and I feel so good for taking responsibility for my own period, knowing I can just sew up a bunch if I ever need, or if someone else need, is so freeing. My friends think this sounds a bit iffy, and I haven't heard them "changing their minds" about it either. Mom was shocked, but she helped me sew a few new ones a while back, and seem intrigued in a way. I hope that cloth will be more "normal" in the future as the young generation discovers it. Periods or sneeze hazzard ( i got them too, having had kids...) are normal, and we should not be ashamed about it, and we should also not feel ashamed for taking responsibility for it.
I just found this video this morning. I'm 52yo & though I don't need them for the sanitation purposes I have not used panty liners in a while and have missed them. I love repurposing/recycling, upcycling so this is uber cool! My daughter has started using disposables so maybe if I make a few of these as pantyliners - it might intrigue her to try them as well - bc cotton and natural fibers are just more comfortable anyway....
Love this and will try it. Your "mistake" with the snap at the end is invaluable for us beginners. I learned a lot through your mistake. Pretty sure I would have done sooner or later!
As I was grabbing a new disposable pantyliner today, I thought about sewing reusable ones. I immediately searched for a video and the first one I saw was yours and it is perfect. Very detailed explanation and fun to watch. Thank you and keep the good work.
I would of never thought of this in a million years! What a great idea even if it was just for at home at night time! Back in my mothers day, they would use designated rags for this purpose. A lot of the old ways should be brought back. Not all progress is good. Would love to see your paper towels also!
I recently converted to these and just bought some starters on Amazon for my teenager and myself. They look so easy to make. I just need some zorb and one of those snap kits and then it may become a homeschooling project :)
My daughter has already gone to using cloth pads, but she buys hers. Your video is so awesome at explaining how to do it. I’m going to make some for myself. Thank you
I’ve watched several tutorials on these pads and yours is the most doable for me. I was intrigued with your use of ZORB and considered it, but I have tons of extra microfiber cloths I’m not using, so I’ll get PUL and use the microfiber in place of ZORB. Thanks so much
I used to use these re-usable pads all the time as well as both my daughters. It's just more economical and better for the earth all round. I haven't needed to use any for 10 years or more now but I have to say that I miss my moon cycle. Good job at explaining the whole process. Michelle
Thank you! I love your teaching and sewing skills. I'm 44 yrs old and have 2 daughters. I do sew, but need to sew more, lol. These are great! They look totally soft and and safe to use vs store bought. Saves $ too!🤗💙
I've been making our reusable pads for several years. Just got tired of the glue and chemicals in store bought ones. The PUL fabric is amazing, and better than what we had years ago, and worth the cost. It's soft, flexible, and water proof, that's why I was surprised when you sewed down through the center punching holes in it.
I know that sewing through the center seems weird. I wouldn't if it was a heavy use pad because of the volume of liquid. But for a spotty or light flow (tinkle) pad, I've never had an issue because the ZORB pretty much gets everything.
Lovely tutorial. Been making and using reusables for couple of years and will not go back to disposable. It is recommended to not sew through all layers as it will make the pad leak more. So creating channel when attaching the core to topper is best.
I have just started with reusable pads due to the problems older women experience when they sneeze. They are super expensive here in Australia. This video has been so helpful, I want to make my own now. Thank you
Thank you so much for the video. This is exactly what I've been looking for, and as a new-again beginner, this is easy enough for me to get back into the sewing world. Thank you for the very detailed instructions; I'm going to try these as soon as I can get some snaps. ;-)
I have been using reusable panty liners recently and I love them and it feels good that I am are helping the environment by not using the ones that I only by one usage
Great video my daughter in her late 30’s Judy asked me about making her some of these. I appreciate the video Thank You. I am going to look for your paperless towel video also.
For inserts you can sew a piece of rickrack a little up from each end and make your flannel insert to go in under each rickrack and it will stay in place.
Great video! I love that you shared about those fabrics. I'd heard of PUL before but never looked into it and had no idea about Zorb. There is a charity (probably more than one) that collects these pads for girls in poor countries where if they don't have money or access to feminine hygiene products they can't go to school and can fall behind. I assumed the pads people made for those used towelling but this looks like such a nicer product.
I'm planning on making pads for Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes for the older girls. I would also love reusable panty liners! So I am on a mission to make reg pads and thin ones for myself! I have not seen Zorb anywhere here so I think I will try flannel for myself and microfibre for the pads!
Love this video and it’s much easier to follow and simple pattern .your instructions are great I’m making some today . Educating ppl about what is in the manufactured pads they are toxic as well as the environment issue .thank you for showing this . Love your other videos as well they got me back into canning
I loved your video. It was vey straightforward and easy to follow. I can't wait to try out making my own. On a side note, your voice and welcoming chatter is so incredibly warm and soothing that the video was fantastic just to listen to. Thank you for the tutorial.
thank you so much for this video! I love how much detail you put into how to design your own pattern. I've never used cloth liners but I've been wanting to for just forever. Today, I placed an order for PUL so I can begin making some in the next couple of weeks.
So glad i found you…..made my own pattern, like you did…..made dozens last year with flannel and Pull. But had never heard of Sorb….my sis, daughters and nieces loved getting some. Will be doing more this winter…thank you so much. I appreciate your sharing your experience. I even used some with cotton and they are thinner and i love them also and not as warm in the summer..Lise, from North Bay.On canada
Snaps are my nemesis 😂. I do love those pads. Made some for a ministry a while back . Wishing I had kept a few. I did not know about the absorbent material. That’s a game changer .
Thank you for this video! This was super helpful and well said. I want to try to make a few reusable cloth pads and this video made it seem acheiveable! Happy retirement too!
Thanks for a wonderful idea. I've been buying the liners for the last couple of years and when I bought them the last time, I thought, gee what a waste of money and land fill. Great idea. PS--- when you were putting the snaps in I was yelling - you're doing it wrong, obviously didn't hear until too late, but you corrected it! lol Also, my husband made me a little wooden stand to put my hand tool in so I don't have to hold it and the item that I'm applying the snap to. Makes it much easier! Thanks again. will be making them now!
I made my own paper towel - did not put snaps on them, the flannel sticks to itself, and the past few weeks I found a drawer to put the paper towels in so I just keep a stack in the drawer.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been looking for an easy to follow, easy to listen to one, and this is it! New subscriber form the U.K....will have to look at your baking videos too as the thin mint muffins sound divine!!
Thank you so much for this video. I have wanted to make me some of these for the longest time but just could not picture in my mind the sewing steps. This is just what I needed. I have the PUL just have to get the Zorb now. Thanks again
I've been making my own for years, and they are a lot better than the commercial made ones. You're going to enjoy your unpaper towels, I love them. Some I made with snaps and some without that I just place in the drawer. I make mine with my serger. It's a lot faster and easier. For the snapped ones I make a attachment made of plastic mesh with snaps added and place on a paper towel holder, then I snap my unpaper towels to it. BJ
Do you have a link for the multi colored snap kit you use? I would love to get it for my sewing supplies. I make reusable pads and liners for myself and my daughters. Got the idea from my mother telling me how she and her sister used folded cloth from old clothes when she was young. She grew up in the rural South during the depression with four sister and there was no running to the store for supplies like that. Got basic instructions from a nice young lady on TH-cam: Precious Star Pads I believe it was. Thank you for the video!!
Reasoning: allergies. Of course for the older us for the sneeze or cough. Thank you for guiding us. ❤ I have diaper fabric (Walmart) already, P.U.L., and of course cotton. What would be your thought of flannel? Thank you.
I want to make them without PUL because the waterproof feature of store-bought liners holds in moisture and creates stink. I'm guessing the PUL will probably do the same thing. I don't have a monthly need but a daily need for light leakage.
I’ve been thinking in making panty liners for awhile now ,especially because fragrance free and also can make this out of cotton . I absolutely LOVE THIS VIDEO ❤ ,you have explained so well . Thank you for sharing your video ,you are AMAZING 🥰❣️❣️❣️
I made many of these for myself, but I found that they don't seem to stay in place. Not sure how to remedy this problem. Also, if you sew into the PUL it will not be leak proof.
Not only that, but I have never EVER seen the core sewn onto the backer! None of the pads I've made myself or for sale and none of the pads I've ever purchased or obtained from other sellers/maker ever had the core on the backer. Blood/urine will absolutely follow the thread and onto the panties at some point, given a heavy enough flow or sneeze.
I suspect you meant bra liners. LOL darn auto correct. Yes I'll see if I can come up with something. I totally agree with you. There should be sonething. I'm what you might call a heavy chested gal and I know there's nothing more uncomfortable than the chafing you can get from a sweaty bra.
Loved your video. When i was growing up in the late 50's early 60's my mother made our womanly pads out of well worn bath towels and outgrown rain coats. No snaps. She used safety pins. Hahahaha i know right but it worked. In my late 60's and wearing pads again! I think God must have quite the sense of humor 😅. p.s. did you retire?
Honestly, if they’re just for myself, I wouldn’t even bother with turning the inside out. I would just assemble them and the correct order and do a surge or a zigzag stitch around the edge.
Another vote for the paper towels, the material sites and the snaps!!!! One more use guys often steal their wives pads when hemeroids get stressed and bleed great case for your custom fit ideas.
What is the brand and model no. of your awesome sewing machine? I need to buy a sewing machine that works. My daughter gifted me one many years ago and it never work well. Can a plier be used in place of a snap setter if we don’t want to buy one? Thanks for sharing!❤
My machine is a Husqvarna Viking Opal. I absolutely love it. I did a video about my machines that will tell you a little bit more about it. I've never used pliers to set snaps, so I don't know how it would work. You could probably use very soft velcro, too. Here's the link to my sewing machine video. th-cam.com/video/AXyZQWRjhKs/w-d-xo.html
I have been wondering if I can find a reusable panty liner for everyday use, but for thongs!! I cannot stand normal undies....I suppose I can cut the pattern to make it narrow?
I've never had a problem. However, the are for light issues or might be a problem for very heavy wetness. These are really a panty liner not a full pad.

Mam will you plz tell me measurement size for adult liners.thnk u
Yes can you tell us the size please
I just made a stack of these &will make more. Love them. I used a waterproof changing pad instead of PUL. Worked 👍

I made me all sizes for periods,now sneezing lol. For 3 years love them, I also made flannel cloth wipe squares too. No toilet paper shortages.

I love the sneezing is a multi-tasking event, so true

great job I love the pattern you used beautiful stitching
Great video my daughter in her late 30’s Judy asked me about making her some of these. I appreciate the video Thank You. I am going to look for your paperless towel video also.
Most real tutorial I have seen, especially with blooper. Good job. Roni
Your lady pad video is most comprehensive I have seen. 👍🏻. Anxious to see your paper towel in material version. Roni
For inserts you can sew a piece of rickrack a little up from each end and make your flannel insert to go in under each rickrack and it will stay in place.
I ordered a set of various sized cloth pads from a Canadian company called Lunapads, and from there, I made all of my patterns. To make my pads.
Great video! I love that you shared about those fabrics. I'd heard of PUL before but never looked into it and had no idea about Zorb. There is a charity (probably more than one) that collects these pads for girls in poor countries where if they don't have money or access to feminine hygiene products they can't go to school and can fall behind.

I LOVE YOUR KIT OF SNAPS😍😍😍😍
You understand very good for women of our age! I am in the gang! Thanks for your ideas!
Wow that’s a great project. Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing 😎👍
Oo paper towels. Mind blown! Thank you again!!!
I am so happy to have discovered your video I am now shifting to cloth. Thank you, thank you!!!

I love the blooper lol makes the process more real! Even a lesson for anyone who does the same thing.
Bloopers happen and sometimes it's funny.
Thanks for a wonderful idea. I've been buying the liners for the last couple of years and when I bought them the last time, I thought, gee what a waste of money and land fill. Great idea. PS--- when you were putting the snaps in I was yelling - you're doing it wrong, obviously didn't hear until too late, but you corrected it! lol Also, my husband made me a little wooden stand to put my hand tool in so I don't have to hold it and the item that I'm applying the snap to.

I wish I heard you! LOL oh well, we are all human and mess things up once in a while. Your little wooden stand sounds like a great tool!
Need to give sites to order for orb,Pul, and snaps please
Diane Myers you can get everything you need at Wazoodle. I found that by simply googling Zorb.
I made my own paper towel - did not put snaps on them, the flannel sticks to itself, and the past few weeks I found a drawer to put the paper towels in so I just keep a stack in the drawer.
I'm doing this bc I dont wanna tell my mom bc she makes everything awkward
Thanks for doing this! I found you originally for canning - Thanks so much for this great video - I will be making some! Katy
You are so welcome!
Loved your video and especially how to make our own pattern for it.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been looking for an easy to follow, easy to listen to one, and this is it! New subscriber form the U.K....will have to look at your baking videos too as the thin mint muffins sound divine!!
you are making a lot of holes in the pul fabric, that may not be as waterproof as you want them to be.
Ideally use wonder clips instead of pins. That will help prevent any leakage through the pul 🥰
Please give us the links where you got the snaps and the materials. Thank you so much. Also I would love to see the homemade paper towels.
Omg. I love your way of teaching. Amazing tutorial! Thx
Brilliant! I will be making a bunch of these.
This needs more views and likes
Great video! You make it look so easy!
Where did you buy the waterproof fabric
I might use clips and no pins to maintain the PUL integrity.
I bought a twin size waterproof mattress pad that is terry covered on one side. Much cheaper than the PUL fabric.😊
If I buy that does it say Terry cover
Edie Wise yes, the one I purchased did.
I have heard that the polyester fabric shower curtains work well.
Thank you so much for this video. I have wanted to make me some of these for the longest time but just could not picture in my mind the sewing steps. This is just what I needed. I have the PUL just have to get the Zorb now. Thanks again
Glad I could help!

I'd also be interested in adult incontinence underwear or pad options. Thank you Teacher 🍎🤟🇨🇦
Reasoning: allergies.
Of course for the older us for the sneeze or cough.
Thank you for guiding us. ❤
I have diaper fabric (Walmart) already, P.U.L., and of course cotton.
What would be your thought of flannel?
Thank you.
Flannel would be a great choice for added absorbency!
Love this video. I've seen other videos about his a long time ago. You are very thorough and explain very well. Big thumbs up. Thank you
I suggest you laminate the pattern and it will be so easy to trace and ct.
I want to make them without PUL because the waterproof feature of store-bought liners holds in moisture and creates stink. I'm guessing the PUL will probably do the same thing. I don't have a monthly need but a daily need for light leakage.
Do you sell these? I'm not crafty and cannot sit upright for long. Thank you.
I’ve been thinking in making panty liners for awhile now ,especially because fragrance free and also can make this out of cotton . I absolutely LOVE THIS VIDEO ❤ ,you have explained so well . Thank you for sharing your video ,you are AMAZING 🥰❣️❣️❣️
Awesome tutorial! I'm excited to make my own!
Great video. Where did you order you different fabrics?
I made many of these for myself, but I found that they don't seem to stay in place. Not sure how to remedy this problem. Also, if you sew into the PUL it will not be leak proof.
Not only that, but I have never EVER seen the core sewn onto the backer! None of the pads I've made myself or for sale and none of the pads I've ever purchased or obtained from other sellers/maker ever had the core on the backer. Blood/urine will absolutely follow the thread and onto the panties at some point, given a heavy enough flow or sneeze.
Where did you buy your zorb fabric?
Zorb is exclusive to Wazoodle
You can also make personal wipes and save on the toilet paper.
Great video, thanks! Does stitching into the PUL compromise the waterproofness?
It hasn't been a problem for very light use but for heavier use it wouldn't be a great idea.
Thank you for making this video! I was going to order these online, but now I will make my own. Can you give link to the snaps?
Looking at your video about pads. Can you make a pattern for bar liners for sweating. I can't find a pattern for them. Thank you.
I suspect you meant bra liners. LOL darn auto correct. Yes I'll see if I can come up with something. I totally agree with you. There should be sonething. I'm what you might call a heavy chested gal and I know there's nothing more uncomfortable than the chafing you can get from a sweaty bra.

p.s. did you retire?
Yes I retired in January 2022. I love being retired!
Honestly, if they’re just for myself, I wouldn’t even bother with turning the inside out. I would just assemble them and the correct order and do a surge or a zigzag stitch around the edge.
Another vote for the paper towels, the material sites and the snaps!!!! One more use guys often steal their wives pads when hemeroids get stressed and bleed great case for your custom fit ideas.
Thank you soo much for sharing!! 😊😊
Omg I could never make something like that!!😭😭 Your so talented!!
What is the brand and model no. of your awesome sewing machine? I need to buy a sewing machine that works. My daughter gifted me one many years ago and it never work well.
Can a plier be used in place of a snap setter if we don’t want to buy one?
Thanks for sharing!❤
My machine is a Husqvarna Viking Opal. I absolutely love it. I did a video about my machines that will tell you a little bit more about it. I've never used pliers to set snaps, so I don't know how it would work. You could probably use very soft velcro, too. Here's the link to my sewing machine video.

Where did you buy your Zorb fabric??? Please.
I get it from Amazon. Here's a link.

So you need the Zorb material as well as the PUL material
They don't have to have them. I just think they work best that way.
I was hoping for a source for the snaps. And where do you find the fabric “Zorb“??
I got both the snaps and Zorb on Amazon.
I have been wondering if I can find a reusable panty liner for everyday use, but for thongs!! I cannot stand normal undies....I suppose I can cut the pattern to make it narrow?
Do you know what the name of the tool to use to remove the snaps please. Love the video best one 😅
I think it was a kind of screwdriver. It wasn't anything special.
separate topic, I know...can you can stuff with coconut milk in it?
Is there a problem with wicking with the wings being an absorbent fabric?
I've never had a problem. However, the are for light issues or might be a problem for very heavy wetness. These are really a panty liner not a full pad.
Thank you! I love your real life bloopers! I do the same thing :D
Glad you like them! I figure we're all human so why not show them...LOL
Great idea
