Pick your project, enter your measurements, and we'll tell you exactly how much fabric to buy. No guesswork, no second trip for one more yard.
Choose a standard size or type in your quilt's finished measurements.
Measure the width of your curtain rod, then the length from the rod to where you want the curtains to stop.
Measure your tabletop, then decide how far you want the cloth to hang over the edge. A 10" drop is a good everyday choice.
Pick a size or enter your own. Measurements are for the finished bag.
Based on 44" fabric, including ties and a front pocket.
Buy too little and you're making a second trip, sometimes only to find the print is gone. Buy too much and the extra sits in a bin. This calculator does the math for the projects our customers ask about most. Every result is rounded up to the nearest 1/8 yard and already includes room for seams, hems and squaring up.
Measure twice, and measure the finished size you want, not the size of the old piece you're replacing. If your fabric has a large print or a directional design, buy a little extra so you can line up the pattern. Prewashing cotton can shrink it slightly, so if you plan to wash first, add about 5 percent.
For a 90" x 108" queen quilt, you need about 8 1/4 yards of 44" quilting cotton, sewn from three pieces. With 108" wide backing, you only need about 3 1/4 yards and there are no seams at all.
About 7/8 yard, cut into eleven strips that are 2 1/2" wide.
For a 70" x 90" twin, plan on about 5 1/2 yards of 44" fabric or about 2 1/4 yards of 108" wide backing.
For a 36" rod with 84" long curtains, two panels at standard fullness, you need about 5 5/8 yards of 54" fabric.
A 72" x 30" table with a 10" drop needs about 2 5/8 yards of 54" fabric.

Fabric somewhat stiff even after washing. I probably won’t use in a quilt
Lovely fabric, very soft!
Beautiful fabric! Great, quick service and delivery
Beautiful fabric that was nicely cut and packaged. Took a star away because seller was not very helpful when questioned about whether my fabric choices were color coordinated. Photos don’t always tell a true story when online shopping so it’s nice to have a store owner with a good eye. This owner didn’t seem to be familiar with her own stock.
always excellejt service and love the fabrics.
