It says for a Medium Size quilt you need a total of 288 circles and yardage for the front is 13 yards and yardage for the back is 13 yards. I find it hard to believe that to make this quilt it will take 26 yards to make a full size quilt. The pattern is put out by Quilters Haven. I sent them an email however they never answered it. Anyone know what the correct yardage is. I'm thinking it is probably 13 yards for front and back, not each.
Define "circular" quilt? I'm assuming by your description that you mean a yo-yo quilt. 13 yards is more than enough for most fronts and backs together.
