Fabric amounts (yards) for 17B

Does anyone know what the yardage would be for the fabrics in an Escape 17B?

I know many have sent Tammy & Reace the fabric they want to be used for their trailer.

Would be handy to know should I happen upon a fabric I just have to have for my future Escape.

Thanks.

Re: Fabric amounts (yards) for 17B

We supplied material for our soon future 17b but I forgot the original yardage that Tammy suggested.

I believe it was 3 to 6 sq yards depending on the pattern of the material. Some patterns, such as stripes, need more material to ensure the pattern matches up on different sections.

We wound up bringing in upholstry material for the front dinette area but decided to have the rear dinette converted into a permanent bed. We will still have the table underneath but Escape will supply the foam for a mattress (and mattress cover??). In the future, we may want the larger dinette to eat at and will get the correct cushion upholstry at that time.

We mostly eat outside when camping.

Tammy will be able to advise you on the exact amount required...I too believe it was about 5 yards of 52" fabric. We sent 10 yards and they returned the excess...which made a nice dust cover for the bed along with a few additional pillows.

Re: Fabric amounts (yards) for 17B

Just an update to my original question regarding the amount of upholstery fabric for a 17B.
Got a fast response from Tammy when I posed the question to her ...

For the fabric, an Escape 17’, Plan B requires 5.5m of fabric 54” wide. If you have added the gaucho bunk to your trailer then you will need 8.4m of fabric. An important note however is if you select a fabric that has a pattern to it then you will have to double the amount of fabric required.

We will order the laminate for your trailer. All we need is the name and formica number. A standard trailer requires a 5 x 10 sheet.


Thanks Tammy! That really helps me out.
