Hi First name / friend,
 
I've been busy working on some new projects - which means figuring out how much fabric I need for the backing. And now … there's a chart for that! 
 
Calculating Fabric 
for the Back of the Quilt

Every project we make - needs backing. I am forever calculating quilt backing yardage - whether I'm making a project just for myself - or writing a pattern. To save myself from pulling out the calculator every time I need to figure out how much yardage I need for the back of a quilt - I've created this chart.

I hope you have some fun projects in the works! I have a couple more in process that I can't wait to show you. I'll be sharing them over the next few weeks. In the meantime …
 
Happy Stitching!
