Pads
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I have TSS and so have never been able to use tampons without a trip to the emergency room so pads have been what I use for the past 20+ years. For the last year or so every time that I have used a throwaway pad I have broke out into a bad rash all over my legs. I got a sampler set of pads about two months ago they came to my house in about two days, right before I started my menstrual cycle.I used the pads all week washing them every day and did not have any problems at all! no rash! soo happy!!!!!Thank you again I can not say it enough.I feel really good about not throwing away hundreds of dollars and pounds of trash just by making this small change in my life.I have two teen girls and between the three of us we spend more than $50.00 a month on throwaway pads just to use them for a few hours and then put them in the landfill for all of eternity.Have a great day!
Highly recommend!!!
I received my liner set and was blown away by how gorgeous each piece is! I added a violin booster last minute and Laura was able to accommodate the last minute change (Thank you!!!!). I couldn't be happier with the style, construction, and functionality of the liners and booster! :)

surprise!
Hey, real person here.
I just wanna say that of all the cloth pad brands I've tried, these were the most different from what I expected, in that they turned out to be my favorites when I thought they would just be ok. I was initially drawn in by "the universe" print (for reasons nerdier than I'd like to get into here), good price, and others' recommendations.
After one cycle of using and washing them, they've quickly grown into being the core of my stash. Both kinds of fasteners she uses are so easy to use (I especially love the tab and button hole fastener) and much more comfortable than snaps, and they help keep the liner or pad laying flat, which is normally a little bit of a problem for me.
Also, I was not expecting to love the liner/booster system as much as it turns out I have. Don't be fooled by how trim and thin the liners and boosters feel, they really to work, and I didn't even opt for PUL behind anything! Plus, this makes them much faster to rinse clean before washing compared to the all-in-one counterparts.
And on top of all of this, they are adorable. I couldn't be happier with my purchase, I'm so glad I gave them a chance! And Laura has a great sense of humor, I can tell. And no, this is not her, I was just that surprised and pleased.
Thanks so much Amy! The quick
Thanks so much Amy!
The quick service, beautiful pads and conservation of resources are all impressive.

Cozy and Comfortable
I have used many reusable cloth pads from many different cottage makers and companies and Laura's are by far the best. They are comfortable, cute, well-made, comfortable, easy to use, earth-friendly, and did I say comfortable? Laura is not only a wonderful craftsperson, but kind and helpful as well. I had some very specific requests for my first order, and she was happy to oblige. I plan to order a plethora of winged light pads for everyday, and more "pieces" for layering during my period. It is amazing how many layers and how absorbent these pads can be without being bulky! Back in the day when I wore disposable pads I felt like I was wearing a diaper. Not with Laura's pads! Amy's Rag Bag provides affordable, comfortable(!) and effective protection for my "moontime." I am ever-grateful.
Incredible
I love these so much more than regular, disposable pads. These are so amazing. I've wanted to try cloth pads for a while, but I've always been very skeptical because I didn't think they would work. These work so much better than disposables, and you won't even need waterproofing (although it is available in case you don't believe me). They work wonderfully, don't cause any irritation, are easy to clean, dry quickly, and are completely adorable. There's absolutely nothing to lose by ordering a sample. After trying my sample order, I ordered more as soon as I could.
Beautiful beautiful
Laura is truly talented at sewing pads, as well as coordinating fabrics. My set is beyond adorable, and they're amazingly soft. The cloth tab closures are so clever, and very strong and comfortable. I highly recommend these pads to any woman interested. Highly impressive, well-made items that far surpass the well-known cloth pad brand names.
I got a sampler set from here
I got a sampler set from here (as I intended to eventually switch to a cup), and Laura did really well picking out the ones that would best suit me while I was waiting.
I'm using them now as a backup for my cup, and these pads are just absolutely adorable aesthetically and super comfy. I can't even feel them compared to disposable pads!
Laura is also very nice and helpful and is a wonderful person from whom to order. I'd definitely recommend this shop for people interested in cloth pads!
Most amazing pads ever!
I absolutely love these pads! They are fully customizable to cater to whatever flow you are having. They are amazingly comfortable, in fact, I usually forget that I'm even wearing anything at all! They are extremely absorbent whereas disposable ones claim to be, but you have to use more disposables per day versus these amazing cloth pads. These are the best cloth pads ever, I'm NEVER going back to those icky disposables! Thanks Laura!
Very happy with the pads
I am very happy with the pads recieved. They are pretty, and very well made. I haven't gotten to try them, but am looking foward to it. They came very quickley too.
Wonderful!
Laura! These are great! (Got them right on time too, haha!)
I was a tampon user, I've switched completely now and my body (and the environment) loves me so much better for it! Woo! Thank you thank you thank you! I'll be back!
My Order
I received my first set in the mail from Laura yesterday and I must say I love them !! They are very soft and I love the colors and materials used in my set. Very well made and they look very easy to use and clean. I love how her system allows you to adjust the pads to suit your needs for day or night. If I can talk my daughter into cloth use I will have to order a set for her. Thanks so much for a great, quality product. I look forward to doing more buisness in the future. Cassandra :)
Pads
Just got pads in the mail today and they are just what I wanted. One is really huge for overnight which I think should work great.
Her system is awesome!
It was great trading with her and I hope to do again another time.
Thanks Amy
Love my new Pads!!
I love my sampler set that Laura made for me!! I received them yesterday...one day after my birthday (It was a Sunday or I would have received them ON my birthday!!) I can't wait to try them out!!
Also, I am a member & frequent user of her other site, www.clothbank.net LOVE IT!!!!
Thanks again!!!
Amazing Pads!
Laura is the best! I filled out a consultation form and she made some great suggestions for my initial sample order. I received a great selection of pads, was able to try them out right away and already have ordered more! I love these pads! They are gorgeous, wonderfully made, affordable and perfectly customized to your wants and needs. Incredible!! Thank you!
Laura at Amy's Rag Bag is the sweetest lady on the net!
Thank you so much you're such a sweetheart! Your pads are the best & made so lovely straight from your heart! The color combos you create are out of this world! Your sewing talents are very wonderful and the pads are so beautiful! Dealing with you has been a pleasure! :0)
I <3 Amy's Rag Bag
The pads were beautiful and Laura was absolutely wonderful to work with! If you're new to cloth pads she's the perfect seller- her consultation form helped alot.
Thanks Laura!
These are my favorite
I bought a nice little selection from Laura and some other pad artists a few months ago. These are by far, my favorite.
They are discreet and tidy to carry with me; before and after use. They stand up to washings. Along those lines the silk toppers wash up really well with minimal staining. Not to mention they are really soft. They are easy to use (although I do have a tendency to lose some of the pieces here and there). The cloth closures are reliable and uncomplicated.
I've only had one or two small leaks, and I could have avoided those by not pushing things, or layering more.
They are all around really functional. Yet they are the cutest pads that I own, and even after many months look less worn than any of the others that I purchased.
They make my soul happy every time I use them.
Amazing!
I wish I could have her sewing talents! The stitching was amazing, the pads are gorgeous, and I know just by looking at them that they will last me forever! Amy's Rag Bag pads were the first I've tried from a seller, and they are incredible!
Thanks again!
You gotta try these!!!!
I’ve never used cloth pads before, and Laura was so helpful with her pad recommendations for me and was very eager to answer any questions I had. She quickly answers emails and has exceptional customer service. I was planning on using these pads primarily as backup for a Diva Cup, but after receiving the pads and seeing how unique and nifty they are (and not to mention inexpensive), I’m planning on nixing the cup and just getting some more of these. I highly recommend these pads, they make me smile!!!

Traded with Laura again! She does an excellent job everytime. My friend needed postpartum pads and she was very excited to try out the new colorful designs from Laura! A+ again for a job well done!
Thanks for pleasing a new momma! :-)
Perfect and exactly what I needed!

I am new to cloth pads and couldn't be happier with the ones I ordered here. Not only was my order shipped very fast but Laura explained everything so well to me.
I received bowling pins and toppers and, in order to suit my needs, Laura also created Mini Pins and the Guitar Pick. I am happy with all of them, especially the guitar pick (worn with my thong underwear) and the toppers because of the closure.
The materials are lovely and very comfortable.
Thank you so much! :-)
These were so beatiful and well-made! :0)

Wow! I have to give you a hand Laura, you sew great! My mother is very amazed, as well as my family members (aunties, nieces, cousins). They are trying to take my comfy lil beauties away from me. Hehehe....now I can't let that happen....thank you so much for being a kind and honest seller. I hope to hear from you and shop with you again in the future. I give yo 5 Stars ***** for your talent and an A+ for your kindness. You have the entire package, a warm heart and great talent at sewing. I think that your pads are the most beautiful pads I have seen thus far. Keep them coming! :0)

I did a trade with Laura of Amy's Rag Bag!
Her pads are amazingly sewn together! They're so cute and versatile.
Very soft and comfortable. She uses quality pre-used materials. Sometimes I wonder how she even has the patience to make these piece by piece!
The Loop & Tab closure really got me to come here. It's very neat!
