Fabric Requirements
Focus fabric - .5 yds for the block +1.0 yd for the
border = 1.5 yards (the border as shown is 6" finished.
Blue, lavender, gold, water lilies - .75 yds each
Black inner border (which is 2" finished, 2.5" cut) = .5 yards...
This is a little on the generous side, but not much...
Binding is not included in these calculations; I'd take your favorite
binding width, multiply that by the perimeter of the finished quilt, add
10-12 inches. Add that to which ever fabric you'd chose for this.
