Zero Waste Pouffe
Save every scrap of fabric from going to landfill with the Zero Waste Pouffe. Designed to store all of your fabric waste as well as look great for your home. You’ll be happy in the knowledge you’re upcycling your offcuts and old toiles to create something beautiful and useful.
You can use the pouffe as a ‘bin’ while you save up your fabric scraps and when it’s full, simply zip it up. You’ll find the zip a useful way to top the pouffe up over time when the fabric slowly compresses through use.

You have two options for printing out your pattern.
1. You can get it printed in A0 at a printing shop or sewing pattern company. Search for "sewing pattern printing company" to find a company that does this in your region.
2. Or you can print it yourself on a home printer in A4 or US Letter format and then tile the pages together using tape.
Using PDF layers:
All of our patterns come with PDF layers so you can select the sizes you want to view and print. To do this you’ll need a PDF viewer such as Adobe Acrobat Reader (this is free to download).

Customer Reviews
Loved it so much I filled it and made a second one! I did read that I should have soaked my cotton piping in hot water and then let it dry before I used it. That would be a good note in the directions since I’ve never done piping before.
My husband wanted a pouffe and I had everything I needed except a zip and wadding. This pattern requires exactly 150 cm wide or length of fabric and as mine was 144 cm I cut the side panel and piping pieces to this length and using an online circumference calculator resized the top and bottom panels. The instructions were very clear and I followed them to the letter. I was pleased to learn piping and with the result. The handle is very useful as 2 bags of scraps are very heavy. Husband is happy.
Great pattern and very easy to follow. Took me 2 hours to complete although I didn’t add piping. Will definitely be making more. Even filled with old tops that were going to landfill.
