About Cris Wood Sews:

Cris Wood Sews is for sewists who want to replace size charts and paper pattern pieces with size inclusiveness and sustainability.

The garments are made up using squares and rectangles. In this way, each pattern piece can be sized to your specific and unique measurements – without paper pattern pieces. With the exception of a neck opening/facing piece and a pocket piece, there is nothing to print, cut or tape. The piece shapes are drawn directly onto your fabric, and the layouts maximise fabric usage.
