- Quilters estimating fabric and planning cuts
- Worth noticing
- The backing example compares two seam directions; its estimate excludes automatic prewash shrinkage and fabric-squaring allowances.
Field notes
The backing tool compares vertical- and horizontal-seam layouts, then provides panel dimensions and a numbered cutting sequence. Its worked example spells out the inputs and intermediate yardage, while the method section explains how seam allowances affect panel count. The page cautions that users should check their quilting service’s overhang requirements and account separately for prewash shrinkage or fabric squaring.
