I see what you mean about crazy amounts of fabric. The pattern I have says that you'll need 26 yards for the framing fabric and then 4 yards worth of scraps for the little squares. I think I'll do mine traditionally with muslin. I may have to buy a whole bolt of muslin.... 26 yards will add up $$.
Don't forget if you use muslin you can buy 120" wide instead of 45" wide!! almost 3x the fabric and usually only a little more $/yard
