Just so you know I have a few new things to offer, such as some money-saving ideas for the frugal shopper: the sew-n-save 2-part pads offered further down this page.  Details are listed below...

 

Please email  me with any questions... 

  • TLC Cotton Pads, hand-made by LisaJaney

Here is a collection of pre-made pads, in a variety of lovely prints (bold fabrics on the left, pastels on the right).  TLC Two-Part Pads consist of: an outer "envelope", and a folded flannel "insert".  The insert goes into the envelope through flaps located on the backside of the pad, which means the top surface of the pad is smooth, seamless and comfy.  TLC pads are the best-made pads around, and have wrap-n-snap wings that fasten around the panties and keep them securely in place.  Normally (unless you request "unlined pads") there is a water-resistant, windbreaker-type nylon layer on the back flaps of the 2-part pads to help protect your undergarments (you cannot feel it, and it does not "rustle" as you walk).   Read more specific info about the 2-part pad towards the bottom of this page, or visit the FAQs

There are several Lengths and Types of pads available. 
Prices (in US$) for each type are as follows:

Pantiliners: $3 - $4 each,  (6", 7" and 9", see description/picture below)

2-Part Short Pads (7") in Lite-, Regular- or Maxi-absorbencies: $5
2-Part Long Pads (9") in Lite-, Regular- or Maxi-: $5.50
2-Part X-Long Maxi Pads (12") for Night-time or Post-Partum: $6.75

7"-long AIO, Regular (6 layers) is $5.00
9"-long AIO, Regular (6-layers) is $6.00, Maxi (9 layers) is $6.75. 
12"-long AIO Maxi (9 layers) is $7.75.

**New offer, for those who like to sew simple items: If you'd like to save some money, I now have pre-cut 2-part pads available for your convenience.  I will send you the already-cut-out 2-part pad-envelopes of your choice (flannel or calico), nylon-attached (or unlined if you prefer), trimmed, pinned and ready-to-sew, along with detailed directions.  It's a simple process, really.  I even do the first one for you so you can see clearly what to do!  The price for the Sew-It-Yourself pads is about half the retail price of the ready-made pads. (These prices include a pad-insert, so you won't need a serger.  The short- and long- Sew-It-Yourself pads come with a regular-absorbency insert, and the XLongs come with a maxi insert.  If you want Maxi inserts for the short- or long- pads, add $0.50 per pad.)  All you need is a normal sewing machine and an iron/ironing board!  You'll love saying "I made it myself!" about your beautiful new pads, and you'll love the savings!!!

Sew-It-Yourself 2-part pads are $2.50 (7"),  $3 (9") and  $4 (12" maxi)  Only the two-part pads are available for Sew-It-Yourself-ers. 

AIO pads  ** recently improved!

The AIO (All In One) pad is a very easy-to-use cotton-flannel pad: no inserts, no separate parts to fold.  AIOs are made of flannel (calico does not work for these).  Folding the pad four different ways exposes a new, clean top-layer so you feel fresher. (this involves turning the pad over, so it is impossible to put a nylon layer in the AIO.)  I've "test-driven" the AIO 9"-Maxi for the past year, and it's a great pad: I've never leaked through it, and I feel confident you will enjoy it as well. Another "plus" is that it doesn't LOOK like a pad in the laundry!
**Short AIO: 7" long by 3" wide, in 6-layer Regular-absorbency ($5)
**Long AIO: 9" by 3", in 6-layer Reg. ($6), or 9-layer Maxi ($6.75).
**XLong AIO: 12" by 3", in the 9-layer Maxi ($7.75)
(Idea: you can add a folded flannel "insert" behind the AIO to increase absorbency...you can use the same-length insert, or an Xlong one!)

**I recently made a change to the way I make the AIOs: I now serge the front and back edges, rather than turning and topstitching them.  This makes the ends of the pads smoother and less bulky - a nice improvement!

  • Pantiliners

In response to a friend's requests, I designed a cloth pantiliner for everyday use.  They're so comfortable you'll hardly know they're there!  I construct them from two layers of soft, 100% cotton flannel, they're an all-in-one pantiliner.  They are a fabulous alternative to plastic disposable pantiliners and I've priced them low enough to be a very affordable and comfortable option for your daily needs.

Pantiliners come in 6" lenths ($3), 7" ($3.50) and 9" ($4), floral or non-floral flannel fabrics.

  • Fabrics: "Florals" or "Non-florals"

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although my fabric supply is constantly changing, this is a representative sampling of what I have on-hand.  You can see there are some with flowers (darker florals and lighter-colored florals) and also non-flowered fabrics.   Flannel or calico, there are bolder/darker prints, or whimsical/fun prints, plaids, and for the wilder side of you I even have some animal prints: several different colors of leopard, giraffe, etc.  (Sadly, the tie-dye fabric sold out in the first week and I have been unable to locate any more...but I do have other fun and funky prints if you like things to be "wild and jazzy"...) 

TLC Original 2-Part Pads are made from soft 100% cotton fabrics, and have two-parts: 
1: A printed outer 'envelope', which has wrap-n-snap wings to keep the pad securely in place.  The envelope holds the second part:
2: an absorbent folded flannel insert that is removable and unfolds for laundering. (detailed laundering instructions included) 
They come in three Lengths: 7" Short, 9" Long, or 12" XLong.  They also come in three absorbencies: the Lite insert folds into 2 layers, Regular has 4 layers, and Maxi has 8 layers. The price for each pad includes both the envelope and the insert: one entire pad.  You may wish to order additional inserts for more versatility (for days when you wish to use the pad as a "regular" instead of a "maxi").  Inserts can also be tucked behind the AIO to make them more absorbent.  You can even adapt a Long AIO by putting an XLong insert behind it to make it more of a night-time pad so it will give more coverage.  Prices for additional inserts are as follows (same price for all pad-lengths): 
      Lite = $1, Regular = $1.50 and Maxi = $2

Calico fabric: I personally find calico to be a little cooler in the summer months; I can make the "envelope" portion of the 2-part pads from a 100%-cotton calico (like a bed-sheet or quilting fabric) for the same price as the flannel. Since the folded inserts are always made of flannel, having the envelope made of calico doesn't affect the absorbency at all. Be sure to specify "calico" when you order if this is your preference. Calico is only available on the two-part pads, not AIOs nor pantiliners. 

Nylon Lining: Normally, the envelope-portion of the 2-part pad will have the nylon layer. If you do not want the nylon layer, be sure to specify "un-lined" when ordering. (AIOs and pantiliners never have nylon-lining.)

**Note: Besides cotton cloth menstrual pads for women's comfort and budget,  I now offer satin pillowcases for a luxurious night's sleep and Turbo-Towels for drying the hair.  See these items here.
