- Sizes are based on women’s patterns (many estimates also apply for men’s patterns of equivalent size).
- Always check your pattern first – it will list exact metreage by size.
- If your fabric has a directional print, you may need extra to match patterns.
- The width of your fabric will affect how much you need - these estimates are based on fabric that is 140 cm wide.
- Add 10–20cm extra “just in case,” especially for pre-washing shrinkage or mistakes.
