We keep getting new questions about our luxury crushed velvet so we thought why not have a new addition to the Q & A on them! Here we go! Q) Why can't I find other makers using crushed velvet? A) Novel Red was the first to bring crushed velvet to the cloth pad market.

At first it seemed like crushed velvet would be too hard to work with but it had all the qualities desired...

Here at Novel Red we get questions every day about our best selling Luxury Crushed Velvet topped cloth pads.

Or, maybe you have been using cloth pads for months or even years and wish you had known about them even sooner. Whoever you are, and whatever you think of cloth right now, you're not the only one. If you have just recently heard about cloth pads, you might be saying to yourself; "That sounds gross. Why would I want to use something I would have to clean.
