Fabric yardage calculator
Lay out rectangular pieces across your fabric width, with grain direction and seam allowance.
02Compare fabric widths
Change the usable fabric width and compare the length needed for the same pieces.
03Folded fabric planning
Compare single-layer and folded cutting. Keep the grain and cut-on-fold requirements explicit.
04Fabric with seam allowance
Use finished piece measurements and add a seam allowance to each edge before planning.
05Quilt backing calculator
Include backing overage and the fabric lost when panels are joined. Review the seam direction before buying.
06Quilt binding calculator
Calculate the binding length, number of strips and fabric needed for straight-grain binding.
07Quilt batting size
Add an allowance around your quilt top to find the batting dimensions.
08Quilt strip calculator
Enter the cut width and number of full-width strips. Calculate the fabric length to buy and the total strip length before joining.
09Fabric cost calculator
Convert your required length into metres or yards, add your own waste allowance and estimate the purchase cost.
10Is there enough fabric in your stash?
Compare a known required length with the length you have. This check assumes the same usable width and compatible fabric.
11Multi-fabric sewing calculator
Plan the main fabric, lining and interfacing separately. Assign every piece to its fabric and review the yardage and unplaced pieces for each one.
