Pillow Yardage

Mar 14, 2013 3 Replies

Hi Angela , i found this chart which I think will help you decide how much fabric you need for the pillows. Even though I don't usually make welts you still need about the same amounts for knife edge pillows. If you want welting I think purchased is easier sometime.



Size With Pattern Match Up to 18 " wide 1 1/2 Yards Each



18" to 24" wide 1/2 Yards Each
25" to 36" wide 3 1/2 Yards Each
37" to 46" wide 4 Yards Each

Thanks for postinhg this! Barbara in FL

Bobbie,there is an error in this. 18 -24 inch pillows should be 2 1'2 yards according to the chart. The posting was unintentional. I wasn't wearing my glasses when I did it. I didn't look where I was answering my DDIL. If it helps I'm glad to have made the error. When she told me the cost of the fabric she wants to buy I almost had a heart attack and I'm trying to talk her out of it. Juno
