Days For Girls

 Days For Girls


What if you had to miss school or work because you did not have proper menstrual supplies? How many days per year would you lose in education and wages simply because you got your period? What if no one ever taught you about menstruation, or worse: if menstrual taboos and myths made you feel ashamed of your body? This is the situation for more than 500 million women, girls and menstruators worldwide. 

Can you cut some scraps for Days For Girls?

What is needed?

8 1/2 × 8 1/2 100% cotton flannel squares 

8 1/2 × 10 1/2 100% cotton rectangles

6 × 6 100% cotton squares

These fabrics should all be 100% cotton. Darker colors and prints are preferred.

Also needed...

8 1/2 × 10 1/2 PUL rectangles

Polyurethane Laminate or PUL is a waterproof and breathable fabric available locally at Scheetz Sew Creative.  Darker colors are preferred.
