Quilt Block Calculator

Work out how many finished blocks you need across and down for a rectangular quilt, with optional sashing between blocks.

Plan the block grid

Use 0 if there is no sashing.
48 blocks
6 blocks across × 8 blocks down.
Finished grid: 60.0 × 80.0 in, before borders.

Finished vs cut size

Enter the size each block will measure after its seam allowances have been sewn.

If you use borders

Subtract the planned finished border width from the target dimensions before calculating the block grid.

Check your layout

Because counts are rounded up, the finished grid may be slightly larger than your target. The result shows the actual grid dimensions.
