Where is this coming from? Thats a steal!
your total cost is $90.49
divided that by 193 = .46 a FQ
.46 x 4 = $1.84 a yard CHEAP!!!!!!!!!

answer to 1st ? = 48 1/4 yards of fabric

It would be $1.88 a yard, or 47 cents per fat quarter.

That is just a starting bid, and could be more in the next 4+ hours.

I can't see her letting them go for that cheap since there is almost 5 hrs left the cost will go up I am sure most likely in the last 15 mins.

All the above calculations are correct. 4 fat quarters per yard. 193/4=48.25.

Remember you'll lose a quarter inch all around a FQ - so it's not as simple as dividing by 4
