I have the Bow Tucks Pattern in both sizes, but am away from home. I want to purchase fabric for a couple of the smaller size Bow Tucks, but can't remember the amount of yardage to buy. If someone could just give me the amount of fabric needed for each piece (body,pocket, lining, etc.) I would greatly appreciate it. I have made the bigger size, but have not yet made the smaller one, so I can only guess as to the amount of fabric. Thanks so much.

Why not just buy for the big and then if you change your mind, you have what you need ..... or of course, it just becomes inventory for your stash! :)

Actually, it has been quite a while since I made the big one, and I can't even remember exactly what the yardage was for that. I am only an hour from home, but I hate to drive back just to get the pattern. I will probably just guess at it and buy generously, and as you say, have some for my stash !
