How much yarn to tie?

How much yarn do you think I'll need to tie a king sized quilt? I've got two skeins of 120 yards each and I'm afraid that once I get started I'll find I don't have enough!

I'm 35 and I think of our oldest, civil war-era, scrap quilts as vintage. I think fabric choice makes the biggest difference. Maybe some nice bright 50's colors with a traditional pattern?
