It’s no shock that quilting entails a ton of math – so much Quilt Math! We require to be able to determine how a lot cloth to buy when we are generating a new job. We need to have to be capable to evaluate and slice effectively. If we’d only regarded back in the working day, how considerably quilt math would be section of what we do (a whole lot) – we may well have paid a bit more notice in school.
As a pattern designer – it’s my work to accurately estimate the quantity of yardage necessary for every single sample I produce. You would not be pretty happy to obtain a sample and the cloth only to find out you really don’t have more than enough (or way as well considerably) fabric.
To aid me with accuracy – and save time – I’ve created some tools I use when I’m calculating yardage and slice parts of cloth. These applications are in the kind of Charts and Guides and I refer to them all the time.
The chart higher than is one illustration of the charts and guides I’m introducing to a new segment of this site. You can discover this new part – QUILT MATH below the Master tab at the best of any webpage on the website.
I have a couple additional to add, but two practical charts are involved in QUILT MATH appropriate now. You can print them out and have them helpful for when you require to refer to them. I hope you find them to be as handy as I do!
