How to sew Period Panties - Good pattern for Periods, Incontinence and Potty training undies

[@elizabethg2715]

I'm so happy I found your page, this video is amazing!! I have 10 year old daughter who has autism, I'm stressing out about her getting a period. She doesn't understand a period and She is so sensitive to way things feel. We've tried practicing with store pads and pads I've sewed for her and she freaked out, absolutely hated it. I think this idea with the one piece pad underwear might be the answer!! This is going to be first thing I sew tomorrow morning!! I thank you for sharing this! I'm hoping this will work for my child!💗🙏

[@billettescrafts]

Let me know how it works for her. Maybe try a soft topper fabric like obv or even heavy organic bamboo for the core and as the topper👍

[@pattondanielle]

My daughter is 28 we been using depends, I am going try period panties see if that will work as well or better.

[@elizabethg2715]

This idea is amazing! ! I've been soo busy I sewed about 45 pairs within last 5 days, and gave first 25 pairs to my autism moms group!! All the moms thought this was amazing, few older children were on period and these panties worked great!! Ive gotten so many text messages saying Elizabeth Thank you for making and sharing this idea.. I told everyone it's from an amazing lady on youtube, and shared your page!! My daughter wasn't liking the feeling at first but with a little time and I made a pair for myself even though I had hysterectomy, so that she would see mommy's wearing her new under-roos too.. she loves them now, even though she doesn't have her period yet were definitely on the right track!! This idea was/is a life saver!! Myself and my moms group are So beyond thankful!! I appreciate your help and time with making all your video's!!💗💗

[@pattondanielle]

@@elizabethg2715 WOW

[@elizabethg2715]

@@pattondanielle Good morning!! Definitely try this out! My daughter Stims and laughs for hours with the autism and will have little peepee accidents, This is working so well with the little tinkling accidents in the past week that when she does get her period she'll be prepared and comfortable with them on. I made myself a pair, I had hysterectomy due to cancer a few years ago so I haven't wore pad in years. I thought it would be heavy and uncomfortable feeling, but it wasn't. It was like just wearing regular panties. Also my daughter was flushing the store bought pads down the toilet when we did practice, with these "period panties" she understands there underwear and if she does peepee in them she'll just change for another pair.. now its getting her to understand that the "period panties" go in a special zipper bag so mama can wash. Also one of my friends has older daughter that uses depends or poise, she's a heavy bleeder and has lite peepee accidents at night too, I made her few underwear that were longer in length and wider in front and back, so the coverage was mostly the same as a depend and she texted me this morning saying they worked great. I did make hers thicker than others. Also I took my daughter out and let her pick out the topper fabric, that helped alot too!! I hope you try these. I'm soo beyond happy I did because being prepared and having good options available is great!! 💗

[@malissawhite4569]

I’m sooo glad to see this because I can make these for the women in foreign countries who can’t afford menstruate pads. ❤️ I would like to make some for heavy flows too.

[@spacerockexplorer]

hi friend! did you end up being able to share any with other women? that is a really good idea :)

[@loisewanjiku3974]

Please help my rural women with them and I will appreciate

Kindly consider my women

[@fatumanelly5080]

God bless you so much for doing such a thing 💖💖

[@malissawhite4569]

I didn’t understand where the “white padding” came from.

[@kgoak5765]

Love this idea of altering existing underwear. Perfect if you’re incontinent. Somewhere between premenopause and menopause it effected me in mid-40s.

[@bitrudder3792]

I love that it’s not an extra piece to wash! By the way, getting rid of caffeine can help get rid of or at least minimize leakage. Occasional indulgence after your body adjusts might still be OK, you just have to experiment with that.

[@Xandtwinmama]

So I think I’m going to make these for my gym underwear. I’m a heavy sweater and I think these would be great so it doesn’t always look like I’ve wet my pants from sweating

[@billettescrafts]

Great idea!! Send ma pic on instagram or if you need help

[@BeerChickenPie]

Hi! 1 yr later, was this a good fit? Did it serve its purpose?

[@PositiveMomStyle]

Another year later. How are they holding up?

[@andimejia5211]

I don’t wear underwear and no longer have my period but I tend to pee myself when lifting, or any jumping movements. My plan is to see the “pad” portion directly into my gym leggings. I’ve watched the pad videos and they just don’t seem to provide me with the info I want lol.

[@mia_seym]

I'm laughing, but with you. I live in a very humid and hot climate, but I am from a very cold and dry climate. I cannot tell you how many bum sweat marks I have left on chairs.

[@leighannhannel5016]

I have four grown children and I have issues with my bladder and I just want to thank you for this video I spent over a hundred dollars on pads for that and I don’t have money like that I can do this and save some money

[@billettescrafts]

Welcome! Please feel free to share this video with other who made enjoy❤️

[@samanthas9603]

Amazing!! This was the perfect tutorial to show how to make these with any panties and how to create your own pattern to fit! As a fellow seamstress, this was by far the easiest tutorial to follow, I feel I could have made this with your help when I was first starting out. Thank you for sharing your wisdom to help others!

[@billettescrafts]

Yay!!

[@kaitlanroisendubh884]

I am glad I found your page. I am working on the other stage of life and now need them once again. Bamboo Terry cloth is also great to use just don't use too many layers unless you have a big problem with leakage at night. I also use my serger to sew really close to the edges. There is nothing like adding 11 inches or bigger pad when you get old. And yes 1 1inches because I know there are a lot of women that have both front and back issues when you are driving down the interstate and your stomach goes nuts on you.

[@beatereese656]

I like the ecological side of this project. We can save a lot of waste. I am not sure, if these penties absorb well the corporal liquids, but they will work well for the every day use. Good idea.

[@jbal6097]

I wish I could like this multiple times! What a great video!!! Thank you for showing all the steps so clearly! I haven’t done anything but straight-line sewing for many, many years, but your directions were perfect! And even though mine turned out a bit wonky on the first try, they are still plenty usable, and wa-a-a-y more comfortable than the ones that I bought online (which are so expensive)! Thank you soooo much! What a life saver!

[@billettescrafts]

Welcome 👏

[@lizworkman9967]

Glad I found you, I'm tired of spending my money on pads you throw away! Excellent idea! Thank you for the tutorial.

[@lgrundy6139]

Thank you. I’m a huge fan of cloth pads. Due to pad allergies that crept up in my 30’s, I have been making them. I suffered from endometriosis pain until I started using mine solely. Now pain and symptoms are gone. Crazy. I was making my first period underwear tonight until my machine would not sew through the elastic. Gonna try this method. Thanks again ❤

[@bitrudder3792]

Wow. I’m gonna pass that on to someone I know who has a lot of period pain. Hopefully this can help her.

[@judithmcdonald9001]

Very helpful! I've been designing incontinence pads. I want the pads to separate from the panties because, yes, urine is more fluid@@than blood. Your design doesn't do that, but it certainly helped me visualize. Pretty sure I'll have to use fine velcro at four corners. Thank you so much.

[@wendypluckrose5609]

Thank you for a great video especially the tip about the allowance of fabric at the opening to help sew it closed. I have been sewing period underwear for a few years now and cloth pads so its good to see how other sewers do these projects.

[@cylejeffrey4603]

The ladies in our family always used fabric, but we call them "comforts," and ours are made from organic cotton jersey which is soft and dries quickly.

[@knittysong]

Thanks for this great video- I am going to line my panties to catch bladder leaks (I'm over 65 so when I sneeze or cough, that happens sometimes!) I ordered Zorb fabric which is supposed to be the most absorbent padding available- we shall see. THis is SO much more economical than buying the very expensive incontinence panties and I can use my most comfy panties for them. I have a couple of small suggestions that might be helpful: 1. To avoid having to sew on the edge of the absorbent pad, you can cut a larger seam allowance, then trim it off after sewing it together. ALso, to avoid any bunching of the curvy part of the pad when you turn it inside out, you can cut out some notches in the curve before turning it to help it lay flat.

[@livinginthenow]

I was looking at the Zorb fabric just today. Have you used it yet? What do you think of it? Does it live up to the hype?

[@knittysong]

@@livinginthenow Didn't get to use it yet, but probably will get to it in September. Sorry! Will let you know then.

[@Batsnang]

Love this! I love that you have alternative options. I too, like your friend, am a front bleeder, but I am heavier so I'll basically be doing what you did with the other, more absorbant fabric you mentioned. Thank you for making this video!

[@billettescrafts]

Welcome

[@rachelhall6574]

What an excellent tutorial, thank you. You can turn on subtitles to check unfamiliar words such as PUL. More environmentally friendly than PUL is TPU, the process of lamination is not as damaging and it is more biodegradable. I bought heavy organic bamboo fleece for the core as I need it for my own incontinence knickers. I'll post some images when done.

[@biancaxsmith]

Thank you so much! Will definitely try these. After a hysterectomy this is a thing especially when traveling. I've bought incontinence underwear that work well, but close to forty dollars for one!

I definitely prefer period panties to pads or tampons. We tried using them for my 11 year olds bedwetting because a friend reccomended them saying they can work good for bedwetting to, but my daughter soaked right through them so we went back to goodnites and shes happy with them! But period panties work wonderfully for me for my period, not sure how well they'd work for me if i also had incontinence.

This is so helpful, I actually wanted to make some waterproof underwear for my son, he's six but sometimes wets the bed and that means a whole duvet wash afterwards. I wanted to make a pocket in some pants that I can put a nappy insert in, I have loads as I used cloth with him and his brother. I just want something that holds enough so he doesn't go through the duvet, I am going to use the ideas you give here but if you got the chance it would be great if maybe you could do a project like that to help mums (and dads) like me. :-)

[@maryschECE]

Hi there what fabric are you talking about that starts with P? I cant quite hear it correctly/havent heard of this fabric before. If I knew how to say it or spell it I could ask for it at the fabric store ❤

[@billettescrafts]

It’s called PUL or polyurethan laminate. It’s popular for cloth diapering too

[@maryschECE]

Thankyou!

[@SusanSmith-hl3iv]

Thank you for this video. Well done with great instructions and closeups. I have several friends who will love these. I can see how useful this could be and want to try making some. There’s nothing in your description box that mentions the waterproof fabric and don’t understand the name when you pronounce it. Pull? Pool? Poll? Where do you get it? Any information will be appreciated.

[@jessiekarabbit]

I was thinking exactly the same. However from reading another comment lower down, I believe it is PUL xXx

[@camilleporter9432]

It is PUL fabric. You can buy it at Wazoodle fabrics, and probably at other fabric stores well. If you want a more absorbent layer, you can use ZORB fabric instead of flannel.

[@billettescrafts]

Thanks for adding comments followers! Yes PUL. Good for built in undies but for cloth pads I love softshell fleece

[@tracyhastings]

PUL, polyurethane laminate. Sometimes called diaper PUL or waterproof PUL. Many solid colour options and sometimes, if you're lucky, you can find some patterned PUL which makes a nice removable pad.

[@calmpositive1292]

Okay I just thought of something, so if your on your period or your spotting, sweating or w/e it may be.. when you take them off and replace them🤔 what or how are you storing them (You know so there's no smell or mess)tell you get home to re wash them?

[@billettescrafts]

Good question. There’s a lot of different ways to store. My preference is You can put them in an open wetbag ( not zipped, it needs to breath) and leave until day 4/5 and then soak them for a day and the. Wash. If you store them airtight, that’s when you’ll get a smell or musty odor. Otherswise, I find they’re isn’t an odor ✌🏻

[@calmpositive1292]

@@billettescrafts oh okay thank you.

[@lisa-le2ou]

Thank you for showing how to do this. What are your thoughts on using cloth diapers for making the core?

[@billettescrafts]

Might be pretty thick, give it a shot

[@shirleydrake1602]

Are you sure a double layer or cloth is going to be enough for a core? I’m thinking at least four layers thick. Could you test it with some water to see how much it takes? I am also actively seeking a pattern for making underwear for men with incontinence pads sewn in. The disposable pads for men are awful. They are really thick and my 71 year old husband seems incapable of learning to deal with a sticky side and exactly where to put it. Also his briefs are tight fitting in the morning and huge in the afternoon! The pad has to fit close to the body or they are useless. I find long legged briefs are better as far as staying close to the body all day. It dawns on me, I need to design or find something to help him (and millions of other men) have something discreet and effective to deal with mild incontinence. This will only work with mild incontinence. Complete incontinence can be several ounces and as you say will require something very absorbent.

[@billettescrafts]

Shirley, try Super heavy organic bamboo fleece. Etsy.com is where you can find it

[@shirleydrake1602]

Thank you!

[@rourkuscreations]

I made a pattern for a mens pad in a similar way to this video to match the underwear and based on the disposable shield type. I used old towels, 2 layer and 4 layer versions. I did sew some elastic in the edges to create a cup shape and they rely on good fitting briefs to stay in place. The wearer is delighted with them. After watching though i may try sewing them to the briefs so i dont need the faff of the elastic. Thanks for a great inspirational video xxx

[@MargaretErbe-t7s]

Had hysterectomy which began incontinence. Had hip replacement ( it took 6 tries before right spot for freezing found.) I lost all bladder control. Regained half, but have big problems now. Getting out really hampered. Pads expensive at 1-1/2 pkg per wk. If these work I will save money, cut garbage by 1/2 big bag per wk. I'll give you results. I am 76 ans not ready to give up.

What about making them for people you bleed 🩸 flow heavenly from the front to the back. And repeatedly for days, changing at lease five times a day. What undergarments can you make that would hold heaven flow of blood? I love 💕😘❤️ to use very think towels folded three times for protection. So can you sew cloth towels three time the thickness from front to the upper back?

I always wear period panties , anytime . Even if i am not on it . Just in case you maybe dont know

[@klvoshall6799]

Hello I really enjoy your videos. I would like to try to make these for my friends daughters. I have a few questions, how often would they need to change panties? I realize flow amounts vary. How do you care for these? Sorry if questions seem dumb, these are new to me and I really like the idea of not using disposal pads. Wish these were around when I needed them. Thank you!! :)

[@billettescrafts]

Change as often as you like. No wrong way. If you find your leaking then the absorbency is to light or you need to change more often. Wash in your machine on cold, possible pre soak, and air dry or dry on low

[@cherylrodriguez8579]

What would you do for a heavy flow??? I like this idea..

[@billettescrafts]

If you made it with multiple heavy organic bamboo fleece core layers

[@queeneywarren9474]

Just wonderful thanks

[@onthesideofright9755]

Does anyone happen to know what is better for incontinence pads than zorb? I made several of these with cotton toppers, adding the crescent-shaped cutouts of zorb core as additional absorbency. The lady I made them for said that (the 2 layers) is not absorbent enough, nor dry enough for overnight or long trips, etc. I've never used bamboo fleece and so I don't know if it would be better at wicking away moisture than zorb. Any suggestions?

[@billettescrafts]

Heavy organic bamboo fleece or even super heavy organic bamboo fleece

[@billettescrafts]

Look on Etsy.com

[@onthesideofright9755]

That's for wicking or absorbency? I ask because the 2 layers of zorb with a cotton topper seem to be too soon saturated. Thank you for monitoring this video for my questions.

[@rourkuscreations]

Granny Gran. I am still learning however I have learnt that zorb is a great absorber but under pressure will release fluid i.e. sitting on it. A resolutoon is to use bamboo fleece on either side. I plan to buy both and have a go with this combination.

[@return2basics242]

@onthesideofright9755 - The PUL is the waterproof material for the bottom layer, so nothing sneaks away to surprise and embarrass you. (If I'm not mistaken, ZORB is essentially the same thing as PUL?) The middle should be either flannel or heavy organic bamboo fleece that are several layers thick. (Flannel for light needs and fleece for heavy needs) And the top layer is cotton, like t-shirt material, which is the pretty, decorative fabric that you picked out.

[@xWaffleHaus]

Thank you so much for the in depth and very helpful step by step tutorial! I definitely liked and subscribed! What presser foot and what size needle did you use for this project? Also, what tension, stitch length, and stitch width?The PUL is so slippery, and with all of these layers, I am having trouble getting it not to bunch up and not make my machine skip stitches!

[@billettescrafts]

I use 3.0 stitch length and I believe my tension is around 4. Take your time and do some test runs. You got this👏🏻

[@RosieCarl]

You might be able to stabilize the piece a little using a double-sided tape such as Dritz Wash-A-Way Wonder Tape to hold the layers temporarily to stop them from slipping. Use a new needle. Good luck!
