Step 1: Find the perimeter of your quilt. Measure each of the four sides and add them together.

Step 2: Add 20 inches to your total.

Step 3: Choose your binding width. We recommend using 2 ½" wide strips.

Step 4: Divide the total length of binding needed for your quilt by 40". This gives you the number of width of fabric strips needed to create your binding.

Step 5: Round up to the nearest whole number of strips. Multiply the number of strips by the width of binding you decided in step 3. That will give you the number of inches required to cut the necessary number of binding strips for your quilt.

Step 6: Divide the number determined in step 5 by 36" to calculate the yardage. Round this number up to the next 1/4 yard increment and you’ll have your total yardage number!

*Note: Work in inches first and then convert to yards!
