If you have no stash, a kit would be the way to go. You will end up with extra fabric leftover to start a stash of scraps. You can check the clearance sections of online sites to find quilt kits on sale. Don't forget the kit usually doesn't include the fabric for the backing, or for the binding. You'll need twice the length of the quilt for a backing piece, unless the quilt is less than 44" wide...
