If you do not need to fussy cut, you can get away with 3/4 of a yard (if a bolt is 40" selvage to selvage, you'd get 8 squares in a row, then you would need 5 rows across to get to 40 squares. This would be 25 inches of fabric, which is just under 3/4 of a yard). But if you need to fussy cut, you may need double that depending on how much your image repeats.
Hope that helps!
