This sewing pattern uses zero waste pattern cutting and is designed to fit on a particular size fabric. It comprises of instructions showing you how to draw shapes directly onto your fabric, leaving no waste. With the exception of some small printable templates to help in the cutting process, no large paper pattern pieces are required. You can purchase this pattern as a PDF Sewing Pattern or Printed Sewing Pattern. For more details see below:
PDF SEWING PATTERN: This is a PDF sewing pattern download which includes the sewing instructions, cutting instructions and printable templates required to make this garment. All instructions are formatted for A4/US Letter paper and can be printed easily on a home computer. The only printing required for this pattern are the templates, all other instructions can be viewed as a PDF.
PRINTED SEWING PATTERN: This is a PRINTED workbook which includes an Instruction booklet, a Cutting Plan booklet, and templates all contained in a brown card folder measuring approximately 21cm x 30cm. All printing and assembling is done in Sweden.
*This pattern is for personal and non-profit use only and should not be used for commercial purposes in any way.
The Method
Zero waste pattern cutting is a bit like a puzzle. It is a method of pattern drafting where you utilise a length of fabric end to end by strategically planning your pattern pieces so that everything is used. This pattern does not require printing of large pattern pieces, instead you draw your pattern pieces directly onto your fabric with the aid of a cutting plan and templates. We love working with this method for 3 reasons:
1. More flexibility: This method allows for easy changes such as using different fabric widths and making simple fit and design changes yourself. Using patterns that fit into a zero waste square or rectangular block is a very efficient way to work. It means that it is easier to patchwork together remnants or use left over fabrics you already have lying around.
2. An easy way to learn to self draft your own patterns : Working this way will help you to start building a toolbox of skills, and you will learn an alternative method of self drafting your own sewing patterns, which are super easy for beginners to understand.
3. Less fabric and paper waste: Without having to print full scale paper patterns for all pieces you save on a lot of paper, and you will have little to no fabric waste during the cutting and sewing process!
