Why another quilting calculator?
Most quilting math comes down to a few formulas: add seam allowances, multiply by 1.414 for anything on the diagonal, and round up to a size your ruler can cut. Every calculator here shows the formula and a worked example, uses fractions you can actually find on a ruler, and works on your phone at the cutting table.
Accept fractions the way you'd write them: 12 1/2, 12.5 and 12-1/2 all work. Results update as you type, and the address bar keeps your numbers so you can bookmark or share a calculation.
