Children's sewing pattern in sizes 2 - 14 suitable for sewists with basic skills. For use with woven fabrics.

The Zero Waste Bow Shorts pattern by Thread Faction Studio features:

  • Super easy to sew with step-by-step instructions with pictures.
  • The whole pattern is made from a simple rectangle of fabric with no leftovers.
  • You can choose to include the tie at the waist or not.
  • Instructions also included to help you with fit.

The pockets and waist finish options on this pattern are also interchangeable with those of the Thread Faction ZW Wide Leg Pants Pattern also available from our store.

Sizes: The pattern starts at a size 2 and goes up to a size 14 (kids sizing).

File types: A4/Letter size PDF (for home printers), A0 size PDF (for printshops) and a projector file too.

Difficulty: Basic Skills

All the patterns in the Zero Waste Collection are cut from a single rectangular piece (or pieces if there is a lining) of fabric with no waste. This leaves you with only usable rectangular remnants the size of which depends the size of the pattern and the width of the original fabric.

We know that this type of pattern cutting is not a 'fix all' for waste in the sewing world, but it is our step in the right direction and we really hope you enjoy the patterns as much as we do.

This is a multi-sized pattern in children's sizes 2 - 14.  A link to the size charts including all measurements is included just below the product title above.

Great pattern

Perfect for using up small lengths of fabric. The pocket is very narrow, but the 2nd pair I made I turned it upside down with the square edge at the bottom. Will adapt for a boy by making them longer by omitting the bow and placing waist edge on edge of fabric.
