Note: if the Metric system is set as the default unit, measurements are entered in centimeters.
- Custom Quilt Size: in this section you enter bed measurements to determine the Comforter, Coverlet, and Bedspread sizes needed for your bed. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate the size of the finished quilt needed to fit your bed measurements.
- Simple Quilt Project: in this section you enter the quilt center width and length, up to 3 separate border widths, drop, pillow tuck measurements, and the cost of fabric per yard. You also have the option of choosing pieced seams, no pieced seams, mitered corners, and no mitered corners. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate the fabric yardage needed for each piece, total cost of fabric, width and length cut size of each quilt piece, as well as the number of pieces to cut. Backing and binding calculations are also included.
- Custom Quilt Project: this section allows you to customize your quilt project by choosing a straight-set or on-point quilt setting, entering block size with number of blocks across by number of blocks down (if choosing an on-point quilt setting, setting squares, side-setting triangles, and corner triangles are also calculated), entering sashing width (up to 9 different sashing settings are included), entering number and widths of borders with separate entries for top/bottom and side widths (you also have the option of choosing pieced seams, no pieced seams, mitered corners, and no mitered corners), choosing vertical or horizontal piecing for the backing, and entering custom binding settings that include straight-grain or bias, single-fold or double-fold, and binding width. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate the fabric yardage needed for each piece, total cost of fabric, width and length cut size of each quilt piece, as well as the number of pieces to cut.
- Specialty Blocks: this section contains an assortment of classic quilt blocks for you to size as needed. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate fabric requirements, cost of fabric, cutting instructions, and piecing instructions.
- Sashings & Cornerstones: this section allows you to choose a straight-set or on-point quilt setting with up to 9 different sashing settings, including with or without cornerstones and sashing border. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate fabric requirement, cost of fabric, width and length of sashing strips, and number of pieces to cut. If cornerstones are desired, My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate cornerstone fabric requirement, cost of fabric, width and crosscut size of cornerstone strips, and total number of cornerstone pieces to cut.
- Borders: this is a comprehensive borders section in which you can enter as many borders as needed with separate top/bottom and side widths if needed. You also have the option of choosing pieced seams, no pieced seams, mitered corners, and no mitered corners. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate fabric requirements, cost of fabric, border cut widths and lengths, and quilt center size after each border is added.
- Backing: in this section you choose desired piecing type that includes vertical piecing, horizontal piecing, or piecing for the least amount of fabric. My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate fabric requirement, cost of fabric, width and length of the cut size of each piece, as well as piecing instructions for assembling the backing.
- Binding: in this section you choose desired finished binding width, binding type (straight-grain or bias), and fold type (single-fold or double-fold). My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate fabric requirement, cost of fabric, the binding cut width size, the number of binding strips to cut (for straight-grain binding) or the size of the fabric square (for bias binding). Instructions are also included for making a continuous bias binding strip.
- Fabric Estimator / Number of Blocks Estimator: this section contains 10 different block types (Square, Rectangle, Half-Square Triangle, Quarter-Square Triangle, Equilateral Triangle, 45-Degree Diamond, 60-Degree Diamond, Side-Setting Triangle, Corner-Setting Triangle, and Hexagon). After choosing the block type and entering the finished block size, My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate the amount of fabric needed and cost of fabric for the number of blocks you desire, as well as the cut width and crosscut piecing instructions (if you choose Fabric Estimator - Fabric Calculator feature) or My Quilting Math Buddy will calculate the number of blocks you can obtain from a certain amount of fabric that you have entered (fat-eighth, fat-quarter, or yardage), as well as the cut width and crosscut piecing instructions (if you choose Block Estimator - Quilt Block Calculator feature).
- On-Point Quilts: Setting Triangles & Setting Corners: in this section My Quilting Math Buddy calculates the number and cut size of the setting triangles and setting corners for your on-point quilt project.
- Enlarging / Reducing Quilt Blocks: in this section you enter the original block size, the desired block size, number of blocks across, number of blocks down, and sashing width (if included in your quilt project).
