workflow guide
Original 360 patterns guidance for Atlanta: compare samples, yardage, room use, cleaning, and project risk using keyword-backed fabric planning.
Preview fabric samplesOriginal field note
360 patterns should read like a fabric-pattern operating manual focused on 360-degree previews, rotation notes, and scale checks from multiple viewing distances, not a software claim: organize repeat, scale, palette, material, and suggested surface so a designer can filter a library without guessing. For Atlanta, map one record to a restaurant banquette, tag it with chalk and flax, and require a coffee-and-water blot test before the pattern is recommended. The page should warn against ignoring pattern repeat and explain how pattern metadata prevents wasted yardage, mismatched repeats, and vague swatch folders.
Planning tool
1. Identify the piece.
Dining seat, sofa, cushion, drapery panel, headboard, or wall/ceiling treatment all need different allowances.
2. Check repeat and width.
Pattern repeat, railroaded fabric, and usable width change the final yardage.
3. Confirm with the maker.
Use this as planning guidance, then confirm yardage with the upholsterer, installer, or workroom.
Match the fabric to daily friction: sunlight, pets, food, denim dye, window heat, moisture, and the way people actually sit or pull panels.
Order or compare swatches before yardage. Check color morning and night, then put the sample next to wood, flooring, wall paint, and existing trim.
For Atlanta, this guide avoids fake local claims and focuses on decisions a homeowner, designer, upholsterer, or workroom can verify before purchase. For 360 patterns, frame the content around searchable pattern libraries, swatch metadata, repeat scale, color tags, and upholstery/drapery workflow examples—not unsupported software claims. The Atlanta version emphasizes apartment elevators, tight stair turns, and durable family seating.

Questions
Check color in the room, hand feel, cleaning code, abrasion needs, sunlight exposure, pets, kids, and whether the fabric needs backing or lining.
Different rooms wear differently. A dining chair, sunny window, rental sofa, and formal bench can need different cleanability, texture, and color forgiveness.
