Just curious how everyone calculates sizes when figuring aout a pattern.

I'm asking this because I'm switching bead sizes again. I'm switching to size 13 Charlottes. I'm trying to figure out my pattern for my belt and I'm trying to figure out how many beads will make my belt 4" wide. I also have to figure out how many rows will make about 28" long. I'm thinking about doing an eagle flying and I have to figure out how to draw it all out before I begin beading it.

I know, Why can't I pick easy stuff to do!!!! It runs in the family. LOL

Thanks Joe
