Looking for organic fabrics, which snaps you prefer, and strong thread recommendations
Hi Community,
I'm new to cloth pads and love the 1 "party in my pants" sample I have for a liner. Found Luna Wolf patterns and rave reviews of it, and have decided to buy some fabrics and materials and make my own too.
Can you offer some thoughts on the following as I try to source some materials? I'm in the US (Washington State) for reference ( Read more... )
