    To simplify this …
    To simplify this step:

    (Just in case you didn’t get it the first time she said it) ;)

    Center of Quilt = 1 fat quarter (18×22)
    1st border = 1 fat quarter (18×22)
    2nd border = 15 inches of 44″ wide fabric
    3rd border = 15 inches of 44″ wide fabric
    Binding (thats the outer rim) = 15 inches
    Backing = 1 yard, again basic 44″ wide.
    Batting = SHE uses low loft

    Good luck!
