    I’m trying to make the most of Christmas sales and wondered if you could tell us would a roll of Tula Pink’s solids be enough for the BOM? Thank you

      Compare the amount of fabric in the roll to the requirements listed in the Fabric Requirements information. That will give you an idea how much more you need

    I thought I understood that yardage would be given for each border and then a total yardage. I'm asking because I'll have to purchase additional yardage to go with what I have.

      Yes, the fabric requirements per border would be nice. It just lists 5.25 yards and is not broken down per border.

        There is not a breakdown of background fabric by border/section of the quilt. If you want to use different fabrics for the various months wait until you get the pattern each month so you can see how much fabric is required that month. It varies widely each month.
