Fabric Yardage Calculator

These resources are here to help you decide a few key things before ordering your draperies or upholstery fabrics. The first chart will help you determine you yardage amount. Most upholstery weight fabrics sold in the United States are 54 inches (~140 cm) wide. A reasonable allowance has been made for matching but some stripe, plaid and floral patterns with large repeats may take more fabric. Also add for arm covers, self lined skirts and attached pillow backs.

1 inch=2.54 centimeters *1 foot (12 inches)=.305meter *1 yard (36 inches)=0.914 meters
