1. Determine which direction is the stretchiest part of your fabric (this is usually the crosswise grain).

2. Cut out a 4"x4" swatch of your fabric.

3. Lay your swatch down on a flat, smooth surface and smooth it out as best as possible. You want your fabric to be laying in as natural a state as possible to get an accurate stretch percentage.

3. Take a ruler and place it on your fabric in the direction of that stretch. Hold the fabric down at the 0" mark, then pull the fabric along the ruler until you feel resistance. NOTE: if you pull too far you are distorting the fabric and will not get an accurate measurement. This is especially important if you are working with fabric that has a print (you don't want your polka dots to look like ovals!)

4. Write down how much the fabric stretches, then divide that number by the 4" the swatch started as. Then multiply that number by 100 to get the percentage. It should look something like this:

example: 2"/4" x 100 = 50% stretch.
