Good cloth panty liners?

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Anyone know of a good brand of cloth panty liners? I'm needing something now, but I hate conventional panty liners. They have a way of sticking to everything except what they are supposed to. Ouch!

can you sew at all?  they're the easiest thing in the world to whip out.. they literally take 15 minutes with a sewing machine....

I agree they are super easy to sew. I made a few dozen for farmers market last month and still have a ton left. They don't sell that great at craft shows and I had to tell an elderly lady that was hard of hearing six times they were for you period. I had to shout it so she could hear, it was quite the scene! So no more cloth pads at craft shows. I can send you one if you want to cover shipping. I don't know what else to do with them. I've gifted my sister a stash and stuck them in with baby shower gifts. They are flannel all in one snap style with serged edges.

I love weeessentials.etsy.com... though I don't love the "ultra-thin pantiliners" she sells. As liners, DW and I use the light flow pads, which we had made with fleece backing instead of PUL. They are absorbent but breathable and thin, they've just got one layer of bamboo in the core.

That cracks me up, because I've been there. smile.gif Craft shows are so hit or miss, depending on who shows up. I'll send you a message.

Do you have any leftover CDing supplies from your first?  I just use inserts.  They aren't pretty, they don't snap in, but they work!

Nope - unfortunately we didn't CD with our first because we had a horrible stacked washer/dryer in our apartment at the time. I haven't bought any inserts yet since I'm waiting to see what we get for the shower.

Honestly, I'm like the cheapest woman alive and would just go to diaperswappers and see if you can score some.  They're way less expensive than actual cloth panty liners.

I love my Lunapanties which I get from the lovely ladies at Lunapads. They're not terribly cheap but they are so comfy and the liners stay put no matter what. I had a couple of pairs for my period but just bought a few more for pregnancy. I just flip the liner over partway through the day so I don't have to carry anything extra around with me. I'm thinking they're going to be great for postpartum flow too, and am stocking up on liners for that.
