Thank you. I'm not sure how much fabric I used for this quilt. All I know is that I bought 6 yards and have quite a bit left. I used less than I planned because of adding the hollow cubes. It depends on how many inches between repeats. For the hexagons, you have to have 6 layers of the area between repeats---all alike. For octogons, you have to have 8 repeats. Mine is not really a full size quilt, it is just a large lap size quilt. I like to make them big enough to lay on the couch and cover up with or she could snuggle with her hubby. LOL!!
