    Smile Where do I find?

    Hi everyone, I hope your week is going great.

    I know this question has probably been asked a thousand times, but I don't the answer. Is there a website or a math formula that tells you how much fabric you need to do a quilt? For instance I am doing the Jacob's Ladder quilt for a twin bed how do I figure out how much fabric I need to do the quilt top and then the sides? I have been quilting for about a year, but I don't get to quilt that often because I work two jobs, so when I do get to quilt it is a real treat.

    Any help you can give me would be great and I thank you

    Debbie, you do have to ask a difficult question, don't you. I always refer people to the Moda site: http://www.unitednotions.com/un_main...uides!OpenPage

    However, that isn't really going to help you for a specific pattern - it is good for precuts though. Although I am not an iPhone user, I do understand there are apps available and maybe someone will chime in with information about that. When I'm figuring fabric I do all the crazy math stuff and mark up papers and then lose them and then overbuy - that's how my stash got so large.
    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??
