Hi,

I'm new here and I hope that I'm posting this question in the correct place. I am sewing a mattress that I will stuff with wool. (I've included a photo of the design). The finished mattress should be 2 meters X 2 meters and 18cm thick. My question is what dimensions should my mattress be so that I end up with the size with want after tufting the mattress? That is to say, how much will tufting effect the final size of the mattress. I'm curious about this for width and length as well as height.

I apologize if I'm not using the correct terms, as I am new to all of this. Also, please let me know if you need any clarification.

Thank you,
Kyle

The Tufting on that picture does not look very deep so you probably dont nee to add any extra material. You can always do a small test piece to check first.
