    Hi all, my first time here, and my second quilt. My first was a trip around the world lap quilt- I'm hooked!
    I would love to make a rail fence quilt for my king sized bed. I will use a king flat sheet for the backing. I do not know how much yardage to buy for a king sized, 3 color quilt. I am thinking of 2 border strips, probably 3 inch and 2 inch widths.
    Any help for a newbie?
