Really sick of quilting books/magazines that tell you to get a certain yardage of fabric but don't tell you the fabric width they're assuming, not even in the appendix or glossary of terms.
#quilting#45 in is a standard quilting width but so is 32 in and 36 in#especially crazy when you see this in books that say they include patterns for beginners#I'm sorry how is a beginner supposed to just know what you mean#also standards are different in different countries#I could rant about this for ages#seriously I can't remember the last quilting magazine or book that specified fabric width#what the fuck is wrong with these people#putting in those few words is not going to increase your page count#don't forget 42 inches#this is why I usually only look at quilting books and magazines for the pictures#and if there's something I want to make I just figure it out and ignore the pattern#because fuck you I can't with your inaccurate guidelines#weird things that make me rage#if you want me to go on a unique tirade ask me about contemporary quilt patterns or harvest moon by Neil Young#gpoy#quiltblr
