Quilt Math Chart

How many blocks do I need? What about sashing? Everyone has their preferred sizing for bed quilts. Maybe you only make baby quilts 42” wide so you don’t have to piece a backing. Or perhaps you add sashing to space out the blocks or add a border to bring it up to size, or so you don’t have to make so many blocks. Maybe you make double or queen quilts square, so you don’t have to worry about which way they land on the bed. This handy quilt size math chart will make it much easier for you to work it all out.
