Who am I?
(and why do I have a blog about my pads?)
I’m a cloth pad fanatic. Since discovering cloth pads some time around 1999, I’ve been hooked. I started making my own pads, and then decided to start up a little business selling my wares. You can find my online store at:

You can also find me lurking around places like:
http://www.livejournal.com/community/cloth_pads/
http://www.livejournal.com/community/diy_pads/
http://www.livejournal.com/community/menstrual_cups
And because I love pads so much, and wanted to help make it easier for other pad-crazy women to buy more pads, I set up an online “mall” store for other pad makers to sell from.
I’ve also set up a review forum so that cloth pad users can leave feedback and reviews on pad brands they have tried.

(yes, I really am pad-mad – Pads, pads everywhere!)
You’ll notice that the majority of the pads I have are not made by me. That is for a few reasons…. One is that I rarely get the time to (or can justify) making pads for myself 
but mostly because I like to have different brands of pads just to have a greater knowledge of the cloth pad world…. and I love fabric, and if someone brings out a pad in fabric I love, I’m often tempted to buy it
