Yardage for Quilt Backs

Directions:
The quilt sizes found on this page are taken from the sample
quilt sizes chart on page above.  Yardages for the quilt
backing charts are based on 40" of usable fabric width and
1/2" seam allowances.  The layouts have been chosen so
there is at least 2" extra backing around all four side of the
quilt top and an extra 1/4 yard has been added to all yardages.
NOTE:  Layouts A and B will generally be used for crib quilts,
wallhangings, etc.  Determine the final width and length of your
quilt, add 4" to both width and length and choose the layout
based on that.  For Layout A the yardage needed will be the
quilt length; for Layout B the yardage needed will be the quilt
width multipled by 2.
