Most upholstery weight fabrics sold in the United States are 54 inches (~140 cm) wide. A reasonable allowance has been made for matching but some stripe, plaid and floral patterns with large repeats may take more fabric. Also add for arm covers, self lined skirts and attached pillow backs.
1 inch=2.54 centimeters *1 foot (12 inches)=.305meter *1 yard (36 inches)=0.914 meters
