They are ideal for use during menstruation, for mild incontinence or for mid-cycle freshness. I make these cloth pads according to your requirements, although I sometimes have items available in stock. All Noonee Wilga Cloth Pads snap shut around your regular underwear using polyacetyl resin snaps, metal snaps or buttons (your choice) unless you select a wingless style. You can choose the fabrics for the upper, lower and inner layers for your own requirements. For the upper and lower surfaces you may choose between soft cotton flannelette, organic cotton, cotton velour, luxurious silk or gentle pinwale cord against your skin, or feel-dry microfleece or pseudochamois or suedecloth. You may prefer different fabrics top and bottom.  I like to have a special cotton print on the bottom just for fun! The inner absorbent layers of the pad can be made from 100% cotton fabrics such as cotton fleece or flannelette or a hemp/organic cotton blend. A waterproof layer of PUL (polyurethane laminate - commonly used in modern cloth nappies and for medical purposes for waterproofness) or Taslon (water-resistant nylon and more breathable than PUL) can be included within the pad, or as a separate lay-in. Starpads are available in 18 cm (7"), 24 cm (9"), 28 cm (11") and 33 cm (13") lengths or other as requested.   Pricing of Noonee Wilga Starpads is based on length, type of external layers and number and type of internal layers. PAD STYLES A classic single-piece pad -  I regularly stock my Cloth Pad Shop store with a variety of these pads.  Custom requests are also available through the Cloth Pad Shop or by arranging with me through email. A special Starter Pack offer is currently available consisting of three flannel or pinwale cord 24 cm pads - only $25 plus postage.  These pads are suitable for light to regular flow and have two inner layers of hemp/organic cotton terry for absorbency.  There is no waterproofing in these pads. Quick-dry, multiple fold pad and holder - a flannel pad is held in a trim moisture-resistant holder. This style of pad is great for light flow days when you can refold the pad several times for a fresh surface and for travel when you need something which will wash easily and dry overnight. Lay-Under Liner - this water-resistant liner can be laid between your undies and any style of pad for extra protection.  The picture to the right shows a collection of 28 cm pads with booster (plain maroon) and water-resistant lay-in liner  (cream with maroon overlocking). Galah! pads - these have an upper layer of flannelette (or other fabric as requested) with a felted wool strip for moisture resistance.  A booster can be placed between the upper pad and the felted wool for extra absorbency if required. Noonee Wilga TwinWing Pad This is a brand new design of pad for those who tend to leak off the sides of normal pads or wish to provide extra protection when wearing pants or trousers.   To the right is a view from underneath the pad.  It fastens around your underwear with snapping wings as normal.  Then there is another pair of wings of moisture resistant polar fleece which drape over the crotch of your trousers to provide another line of protection.  Like the Galah! pad, you can lay in an extra booster between the upper layer of  the pad and the lower water resistant layers. See my listing at the Cloth Pad Shop for more details about this pad. For more details about Starpads including pricing, special requests or to place orders, please email me. Note also that I now carry some instock pads as well as listing custom slots at the Cloth Pad Store. I have a wide variety of fabrics available for making up a special pad (or collection of pads) just for you or for a special gift.  I love to find fun and different fabrics for top and bottom of the pads, and if I don't have a print exactly to your liking, I can happily pop into our nearby cotton print treasure trove where there are fabrics of almost any print you can imagine.
