WHAT???????? ..... there is very little wastage in making a OBW!
QuiltingND ... I believe the Bethany Reynolds book about making OBWs has some yardage approximations listed. It's really hard to estimate the quantity required, as the size of the pattern, the pattern repeat and the cut size of the triangles will have an effect. Also, consider whether you are doing the whole quilt as one big OBW? adding borders? using some of the virgin fabric in the borders (or elsewhere).
