This question has probably been answered before but since many of Jenny's patterns call for layer cakes or charm packs it's difficult to know how much they equal in yardage. I really love scrappy quilts but sometimes I want to make a quilt with just 2 or 3 fabrics. May in Jersey

Re: Layer Cake and charm packs = How much yardage?
May, here is something I saw online and wrote down as a reference for myself.
1yard of fabric yields approx. 56 charm squares, and 1 layer cake is approx. 2 3/4 yards.
I have not tried this just saw it online.
Additional info-
1/4 yard= 8 charm squares
1 fat quarter= 12
1/2 yard= 24
3/4 yard= 40
1 yard= 56Visit my Flickr page, sewing and cakes!
