2 yards if you love it min. Welcome BTW!!! I buy 1 yard if I'm buying several prints from the same line. I just bought 4 yards of a clearance material for a OBW. The reason I say 2 yards is that years ago I bought 1/2 yards of prints I loved and I'm haveing a really hard time getting quilts out of them. Most patterns is 5 yards for a top. I keep running short and finally admitted defeat on one and made a wall hanging. I try to buy for projects. I do buy alot of charm packs to get variety and I do a fat quarter of the month club. I live in the in search f catagory on here and theres one fabric I have yet to give up on but I'm getting ready to concede and use a blender for a border because that fabric is nowhere!! sometimes I think it would be less aggervating to build a time machine to 2005 and get these fabrics hahaha Happy quilting!!
