Can some recommend a site that has the fabric yardage needed for the whole quilt pattern please.
I'm terrible at figuring out how much I need. Right now, I'm looking at a pattern called Tradewinds that I want to make. Not sure how much fabric I need tho, and fabric calculators don't help me much :cry: .
Thank you.

It is here. It gives the fabric for 1 square only. I need it for 20 squares. I'm going to put sashing in between them also. The asahing is easy to figure out.

Carol, you should ALWAYS buy extra, especially if making a large quilt - running short can be diasterous, especially if there are only a few fabrics. You can use extras to trim curtains, pillows or shams. A single slip with the rotary cutter can mess you up unless you allow for extra.
