In cases like this I generally get more than I need (3-5 yards) and use the leftovers for some other project....especially when it comes to white fabric! It's a staple in my stash.<br /><br />Amanda JeanAmanda Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06311818385469850186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-42562135396561800752012-07-30T12:43:11.897-05:002012-07-30T12:43:11.897-05:00What a lovely quilt!

Do you remember the approximate yardage that you used on the solid white fabric? I'm new to quilting so I'm not sure how to figure that out.
