Cris Wood Sews

These zero- or minimum-waste patterns are good for the environment, good for beginners, and great for your fashionable wardrobe! Even better, since all of their pattern pieces are rectangular, you only need to measure and cut rectangles of fabric, there’s no printing required. Each pattern includes a formula to calculate your piece sizes, so they are fully customizable.

We think that this list includes all of the patterns found on their website, yay! For more information, visit their website, https://criswoodsews.com/.
