I don't understand how 6 fabrics of 2 1/8 yds would only make a throw size quilt, when almost half the amount of fabric is much too much for the queen size, whether you had to buy a little more. I saw the pattern for the QS quilt and the amount seems fine to me. Maybe I'm missing something, as for such a large quilt I usually plan on 12 or 13 yds depending on the pattern.
