Boston Commons-Quilt in a Day
Hello everyone, I am pulling from my stash to begin Eleanor Burns' Quilt in a Day Boston Commons quilt pattern. I ordered the book this morning but it won't be here until early next week. I watched her video tutorial and she says that you need 2/3 yard for the colors for a queen size quilt. But she doesn't say how much of the background fabric is needed. While I wait for the pattern book to arrive, could someone that has the book tell me how much yardage is needed for the wide background "sashing borders", the interior 2.5 inch strips and the 2.75 inch strips combined.? I would greatly appreciate it since my nearest quilt shop is over 2 hours away.
