These yardages would work if the strips are cut width of fabric - and the joins would be 'wherever' - which may or may not matter to you

Draw it out on graph paper and see what will work with the fabric(s) you plan to use.

Those amounts leave NO wiggle room, nor do they allow for shrinkage or wonkiness.

I have a handy dandy App for my IPhone called QuiltCalc by Robert Kaufman. It came up with: 1st border-1 1/3 yds (7 strips @ 6 1/2 inches), 2nd border- 1 yd (8 strips @ 4 1/2 inches), 3rd border - 1 5/8 yd (9 strips @ 6 1/2 inches). I hope this helps.
