Design & Creative Calculators (25)
Good design and good craft both come down to real proportions, which is why this collection covers aspect ratio, golden ratio, and DPI for print resolution, alongside typography scale, line height, and a logo proportion grid for keeping a brand consistent. Digital work gets covered too, with a pixel to cm converter, an image file size estimator, and a canvas resize scale calculator for prepping any file correctly.
The sewing and craft side gets just as much real math: a fabric calculator covers general yardage, with dedicated versions for quilt backing, quilt binding, tote bags, circle skirts, pleated skirts, and cross stitch projects, plus a hexagon quilt and half square triangle calculator for piecing patterns exactly. Round it out with paper weight and paper thickness for print projects, clay shrinkage for pottery, shoelace length, bean bag filling, and a balloon arch and helium balloon calculator for planning an event down to the last balloon.
