Bonnie seems to have an affinity for pieced borders so that is probably incorporated, at least somewhat, into the yardage requirements she already gave. Likewise, with backing, if you prefer to use one fabric you can, but you can also piece your backing. I like using 10-20in squares myself, but have been known to do an intricate backing at times. If you need an excuse to buy fabric though, then yes, you should buy fabric!
