This calculator determines how much fabric is needed if you want to cut a given number of fixed-sized pieces.The amount of fabric is expressed as length (in yards) of a piece of fabric the width of which is specified by you.(The calculator defaults to a value of 43 inches.)
You enter the dimensions of the piece of fabric you wish to cut and the number of such pieces that you want to cut.Then, click the Calculate button.
Two calculations are performed since the amount of fabric required may depend on how the pieces are cut.In the second calculation, the width and length are reversed from the first calculation.(See the example in the picture below.)
Please note that the amount of fabric to cut is the calculated amount of fabric rounded up to the nearest 1/8 yard.

NOTE: Our goal is to make the Fabric Calculator as accurate as possible, but please double-check all results thoroughly. Sailrite will not be held responsible for any miscalculations, cut fabric, or purchased fabric as a result of this software.
A bolt is not a typical unit of measurement. While we talk about a bolt of fabric as though it has some specified dimensions, it varies. The bolt size is more dependent on the thickness of the material than the length.
This type of calculator is best used for home improvement projects that use geometric shapes rather than clothes. You may consider using it as a table cloth or quilt fabric calculator where you wish to produce multiple pieces of these items using a standard measurement.
In calculating the total yards of fabric, you will need for your project, our yards of fabric calculator takes the width of the material you enter and divide it by the width of the fabric you wish to cut. This gives us the number of pieces you will have across.
These calculations work for many projects, including fabric wallpaper and other wall coverings, tablecloths, duvet covers and bedding, ground and floor coverings, awnings, banners, backdrops, headboards, and panels.
Some projects, like duvets, tablecloths, and headboards, look best if you have the full width piece in the middle and the remainder on the sides. This looks more professional than having a seam right down the middle.
Figure out the number of 6" square top landscape staples and rolls of 3' x 300' landscape fabric you need by inputting the length and width of the plot of land where you plan to install the landscape fabric.
Our Fabric Calculator will calculate how many yards of fabric you will need for your projects. Please note that this is to be used as a guide only for fabric pieces that are the same size, like for chair upholstery, pillows, napkins, etc.

Mirroring provides a modern way of accessing and ingesting data continuously and seamlessly from databases or data warehouses by replicating a snapshot of the database to OneLake and continually keeping the replica in sync in near real time. Enjoy free Mirroring storage for replicas up to a certain limit based on the purchased compute capacity SKU you provision. For example, if you purchase F64, you would get 64 free terabytes worth of storage. OneLake storage is billed only when the free Mirroring storage limit is exceeded, or the provisioned compute capacity is paused.***
Each capability and the associated queries, jobs, or tasks have a unique consumption rate. Is Fabric capacity MACC eligible? Yes, fabric capacity is an Azure SKU, so customers are eligible to draw down from their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC). If I have existing Power BI Premium P-SKUs, should I buy Fabric capacity? Fabric capacities and Power BI Premium capacities offer two purchasing options for you to get access to the complete range of Microsoft Fabric capabilities. All Power BI Premium capacities are automatically upgraded to support all the Fabric workloads.
However, if you need additional capacity, you can purchase Fabric capacities which are available on a pay-as-you-go basis, meaning you can scale them up and down dynamically and even pause them completely with no usage commitment.
For non-Power BI publishing activities, no Power BI Pro license is required. This means users can use pipelines, create data warehouses, use notebooks, and manage their capacities without a Power BI Pro license.
NOTE - our calculations are based on standard fabrics with normal vertical pattern repeats that can be joined at the same position in the pattern on each side of the roll. If your fabric has a HALF DROP PATTERN REPEAT where the pattern doesn't match exactly on each side but is shifted down half a pattern repeat (drop) where it ends on the sides, please read the Mini Tutorial in the BASICS section regarding HALF DROP PATTERN REPEATS for information on how to deal with calculating fabric quantities and how to cut and join the HALF DROP REPEATS.
The calculator by default rounds up to the nearest whole number. This may not be the best choice though as the Actual fullness ratio may be too high. If that is the case select this check box to ROUND DOWN to the nearest whole number of widths and recalculate. This will give you a lower fullness ratio. Then decide which is best.
If you have a Half drop pattern repeat you MUST add this pattern repeat. Half of the extra pattern repeat will be needed to position your cuts correctly on the roll and the other half can be used to position the pattern. (see Half drop pattern repeat mini tutorial)
This curtain fabric calculator is based on making curtains using the heading and hem allowances in our online tutorials. Full written explainations of the calculations the calculator is based on are given in the tutorials on this website.
I am making a pair of pencil pleat curtains. The curtain pole is 123.3 cm in length. If I make the curtains with one width of fabric I get a fullness ratio of 2.22. If I make the curtains with 1.5 widths the fullness ratio will be 3.33. The ideal fullness ratio for pencil pleat curtains is 2.4-2.5. Which will look better a pencil pleat curtain with FR of 2.22 or 3.33? I would value your opinion. Thank you.
When this problem crops up we make the panel to the higher number of widths and cut it down to a width that gives us the desired fullness ratio. We are close to launching a very big update to the website and this "Advanced Method" as we call it will be included on the site. We have also made a fullness ratio calculator as part of the site upgrade to help make this decision. I have run your figures through the calculator assuming your fabric is 137cm wide and it has come up with the figures below in the image.
SO in answer to your question looking at the calculator results, we would use 3 widths. and cut each 1.5 width joined panel down to a width of 154.1cm. Then when you make the flat panel for each curtain (turning in the side folds) it will be 149.1cm wide. When you pull the headings to form the pleats each curtain will be 66.7cm wide (note extra 5cm for ease and overlap). The calculator tells you you will have not used 102cm width of fabric in total from the 3 widths. Hope that helps a bit.
Hi Beth! I am making 2 pair of double pinch pleat curtains. What is the best way to determine the distance between pleats and how many drapery hooks are needed for each panel? Is it a set measurement or does it depends on the curtain rod length, finished panel width and fullness ratio? Thank You!
hello, please can you recommend a black out lining that would work for a 3m wide sliding door opening. I would typically use interlining with my curtains but this is for a Spanish house so it would be too much and not look right. When I've worked with blackout before for Roman blinds I have found it difficult to get a needle through so really welcome your thoughts.
Hi, I'm looking to make lined only curtains for 3 meter wide sliding doors. I usually interline but this is for a Spanish villa so I want to use black out lining. Please can you recommend a soft, easy to work with black out lining please? Typically when i've used blackout for roman blinds I find it difficult with the needle. Thanks so much.....love the website as always...
Hello i am making two sets/pairs of curtains with pole widths of 300cm the fabric has a pattern repeat of 67cm horizontally and vertically with the drop required of 157cm. I presume to have an extra 67cm at the top in each joined drop to get the pattern correct? I know I need to join two widths to make one curtain any help would be appreciated
No. Look at STEP 3 of our curtain making tutorials and you will see you do not add 67cm (a full vertical Pattern Repeat) to each cut drop. You calculate what is called an Adjusted Cut Drop. (that is rounding your cut drop up to a whole number of pattern repeats). Then your pattern will match when you join your drops. It is all explained in the tutorials and the calculator calculates adjusted cut drops in the fabric qty calculation if you are using patterned fabric. We also add 1 pattern repeat to the total to place the pattern on the curtain.
