The pattern mentions it takes 1 jelly roll and it's 49 x 67
1 Jelly Roll or 12 1/4 yard cuts of fabric
3.25 yards for backing
1/2 yard for binding

Is it weird it doesn't mention batting? Do some quilts not use batting?

Of course you can do this quilt on your machine. I have made several quilt tops on one of my Featherweights, and even quilted one top on it. I normally quilt on my Bernina. I too would recommend stitching in the ditch, it is easy and quick. Good luck, be sure to post a pict. of the finished quilt. I always add batting except with my denim quilts, because of their weight. Most likely, the quthor of the pattern, just assumed that most people know about the batting, and they often forget about new quilters, so glad you ask the question.
