Another thing to check - does the fabric bleed?
I have had fabrics that I gave a "light washing" bleed when I starched them.
A Jinny Beyer dark red and a Jinny beyer dark blue. This was maybe 20 years ago, but still - - - - Don't remember the brand nama, but it was supposedly one of the "better" ones.
I am in the "wash before cutting" camp - so shrinkage is not usually a problem.
I am very good at squeaking out the maximum number of pieces from a piece of fabric - but I have also learned that sometimes it just is not possible to get all the pieces I need/want from a given piece of fabric. Measuring and calculating first before starting to cut would have been a good idea.
Also - measure the usable width of fabric - I used to think "all" yardage was 44-45 inches wide. It is not.
Also - fat quarters vary in size. I have gotten them where they are 17.5 x 20.
And as generous as 19 x 22.5; So, when the fabric available is on the skimpy side - do some serious calculating before cutting it.
As attested to by my pile of scraps.
