BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Rounds the number of fabric widths per window before multiplying by cut length. Fullness, hems and product pattern repeat are supplied rather than recommended.

Length = windows×ceil(rod width×fullness/usable width)×repeat-aligned dropCalculated with normalised units

Usable width must already account for seams and side hems. Pair division, pattern placement and matching between windows are not optimised.
