Quilt Yardage Calculator

Enter one quilt size and get the whole finishing list at once — backing yardage with seams, batting size, and binding strips.

Backing

5 yd

In the app, this also gives you

  • Piecing yardage from your block grid
  • A complete, exportable cut list
  • Costs from your own price per yard

The whole finishing list from one size

Once the top is pieced, three questions remain: how much backing, how big the batting, and how much binding. They all start from the same quilt size, so this calculator answers all three at once — backing with the fewest seams (4" overhang per side), batting with 4" overhang, and straight-grain binding strips with 10" spare for joining. Adjust the details on the dedicatedbacking,batting, andbinding calculators.

There's more where that came from

This is a taste of the app's whole-quilt plan: there it starts from your block grid, adds the piecing fabric, and exports the complete cut list as a PDF.
