Shopping Tips

  • Pre-wash — Wash and dry before cutting. Cotton shrinks 3–5%.
  • Buy extra — Estimates include 15% waste margin. A quarter yard extra per fabric is insurance.
  • Standard width — Assumes 44" wide quilting cotton.
  • Fat quarters — 18" × 22", roughly ¼ yard. Great for scrappy quilts.
