That link takes you to the fabric...will it work? I was thinking to get 6 yards...enough? Not enough? Too much?

Thanks everyone!

I would buy all 8 yards!!!

Love it.... I think I used the same material in a previous quilt. Does this has some shiny gold in it? I love the pattern and it was easy to work with... go for it.

This fabric will be fantastic in the OBW! Be sure to post a picture when it's done.

Thats a really great fabric! You can have a repeat as large as 24"...the larger, the better for a OBW. 6 repeats are the best...but smaller will work just fine. Have fun, they are addicting to make though!
