Hello, will someone please check my calculations for the curtains I'm due to make as I dont think they have bought enough fabric. The shop she bought the fabric from calculated her yardage at 35mts but I have worked it out at 42mts and as there is such a huge difference a large dollop of self doubt is creeping in.
Curtain track is 150cm
Finished curtain length before hems and heading is 256cm
Fabric width is 148cm
Pattern repeat is 63cm
I estimated that they would need 14mtrs of fabric for each pair of curtains, four drops for each set of curtains. There is going to be three sets of curtains therefore 42mts of fabric needed, is this correct?
The person who I am making the curtains for bought 35mtrs of fabric as this is what the shop calculated her yardage as, have I over estimated.
