The amount of fabric required is 72 in x 60 in = 4320 square inches. This is approximately 2.79 square metres NOT METRES. The length of fabric required will depend on the width in which the fabric is sold.
It depends on the width of the fabric. Also, if the fabric is patterned and you want to (or need to) match the patterns, the repeat length.
I'm guessing they use 84 inches of fabric, but because of hemming and such, it's actually shorter. Just a guess. I want to know why it's so hard to find curtains over 84''.
I'll assume the designer did not purchase 1949 yards of fabric unless it's for Melania Trump. If that's 4 and 1/2, 6 and 2/3, and 9 and 1/4, that's 20 and 5/12 yards.
It depends on a lot of information that you haven't provided. So, I will make some assumptions and you can see how I calculate it and make any changes you need if my assumptions are wrong. Assumptions: 1)Your window is 33 inches wide by 63.5 inches tall? 2)The width of your fabric is too short to go the long way on your curtains. 3) If you position the fabric with the yardage you buy going up and down (vertically), the pattern on the fabric will be upright. 3)You want to make your curtains, so when they open the entire window is exposed. That means that you must place your curtain rod a good 6 inches beyond either edge of your window trim. 4) When you make your curtains, you want to gather the top in folds. This means you need 1 1/2 times the actual width of the curtain rod. So... you need 33 inches plus 6 inches plus 6 inches (for the sides) = 45 inches total width after you gather the tops in folds & a small 1" hem on each side. And ... you need 1 1/2 times that or 66.5 inches across the top for both curtains or 33.25 inches across the top for one curtain (2 per window ... they open in the middle, right?) You should add 2 more inches for a small hem on each side of the curtain, so 35.25 So... we will also assume that the width of the fabric you are buying is wide enough for one curtain the short way on the window. Therefore, we will need to buy yardage for the long length of the window plus a bit to go below the window plus for hems at the top and bottom times 2. So... yardage to buy 63.5 + 10 inches for a double fold (5") at the top + 3" hem at the bottom + 4" extra for the curtain to go below the window = 70.5 inches And you need two curtains for a window so, times 2 = 141 inches or about 12 feet or 4 yards. ANSWER: 4 yards
