Hi! I wondered about this too, so I did what my family accuses me of all the time " she looks it up on internet". I asked "how to figure out the yardage for a quilt?" Several websites listed, here's just one I found. I like Quilter's Cache and think Marcia has done a good job with this chart.

If you using alot of different fabrics, I would think it would give more of a "scrappy" to the quilt because the same fabric isn't going to be repeated as often. Hope this helps, Chris
