Here is the link to the post:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-143977-1.htm Just last week one of the board members posted a chart about that and i printed it out. It says on the chart you get 56 5" squares out of the yard based on 40" width of fabric. Hope i am reading the chart right. |
How wide is the fabric?
width / 5 = A (10*36)/5 = 72 A * 72 = charms |
Thank you!

I have to agree with charming 56 per yard or 112 for two yards.
|
I see 8 across because you have to trim selvages and 8*5"=40". 7 down because 5"*7=35". You can make it if your fabric is cut straight.
8 times 7 equals 56 five inch squares. |
yes, 56 per yard is right! 8 across x 7 down = 56/yard
|
Ah. To those who said they would never do this math again in their life. It always seems to rear its ugly head.
|
I'm sorry.
