Divide that by 36 and you can come out with a little less that 3 yards. 3 yards should give you what you need for the back but do you need anything for binding? and since this is an old quilt, I would want to wash that yardage to be sure of shrinkage or possible bleeding before it is finished. Also, if it is considered vintage, I would carry through and quilt it in the method that you are restoring. If it was hand quilted, as most were in the past, I'd do that again.
