About this calculator
A fat quarter is a quilting fabric cut roughly 18 inches by 22 inches (about 396 square inches) — a quarter yard cut into a more square-ish shape rather than a long, narrow strip, which makes it more useful for cutting patchwork pieces and appliqué shapes without waste.
This calculator takes the total fabric area your project needs and figures out how many fat quarters that requires, along with the total coverage they provide and the fabric left over. It’s a routine planning step for quilters and sewists shopping a fabric store or fat-quarter bundle before cutting begins, helping avoid both an expensive over-purchase and a mid-project trip back to the shop.
