WorNotWasted
WorNotWasted is dedicated to zero-waste methods in garment design. Instead of traditional pattern-making, we focus on innovative, waste-free layouts, helping you understand the basics so you can experiment and create sustainably.
Though challenging, zero-waste design is highly rewarding. It shifts the mindset toward valuing materials and rethinking creative pattern cutting. With curiosity and education, garments can be made with minimal waste—leveraging smart design and technology to drive sustainability forward.
Currently, 15-20% of garment materials are discarded before reaching consumers—wasting resources, time, and energy.
Why squander it? Zero-waste designs ensure fabric is fully utilized, reducing unnecessary waste.
As the world confronts fast fashion’s impact, WorNotWasted empowers makers and designers to embrace slow fashion, creating unique, sustainable garments. While resources on zero-waste design are still limited, online communities provide valuable opportunities for learning and sharing.
We offer templates showcasing zero-waste garment designs to help you grasp the fundamentals. Each set includes an instruction booklet to guide sewers eager to learn and refine their skills.
By reading this, you’ve taken the first step toward sustainable fashion—we appreciate your curiosity and commitment to change!
