Calculator Assumptions

• Lined, Interlined or Blackout Roman blind
• 6cm trimming allowance on lining cut drops
• 6cm trimming allowance on fabric cut drops (note not included for pattern fabrics where there is more than one cut drop as adjusted cut drops are usually longer than required)
• Results are rounded up to nearest 10cm (0.1m)

This Roman blind fabric calculator is based on making blinds using the heading and hem allowances in our Roman Blind Courses. Full written explainations of the calculations the calculator is based on are given in the courses on this website.
