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.

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
This is the project I've been waiting for. I've been saving my fabric scraps for years – in the hopes that one day I would find *something* to do with them. Enter this pattern. The instructions were simple to follow and it was a real joy to make. The wadding gives it a lovely squish whilst the fabric scraps provide weight. I love the thoughtful details, like the piping, handle and zipper which give a professionally finished feeling to the project. Every sewing hobbyist needs one of these.
This good sized pouffe made by me in vintage curtain fabric. Joined oddments of wadding and filling with every tiny scrap of off cut fabrics. I.e. not big enough for dolls clothes. It’s taking a while but sitting in the corner of my sewing room. The prettiest fabric bin I’ve ever had. When full it will go to my Granddaughter for her reading corner and I will start another one. Total win. Many thanks.
This was fun to make and nice to have around. Mine’s not full yet, but it’s nice to have next to my work station to drop fabric scrapes in. Love the eco-friendly aspect to it. When I finally fill it I plan to make another one to keep as a scrap bin!
I’m also a beginner at sewing and this was easy enough for me as a beginner.
