The Perfect Backing
How much do you love finding the perfect quilt backing?!? For me I have a love hate relationship with backing–I love pieced backing but I dislike the process of making them. Once I get that quilt top done, I just want to be done! This quilt was easy…I knew I wanted the whole thing to be made using the Tiles fabric from Patty Young’s Sanctuary line of fabric. Easy Peasy and so perfect! =)
Why that is a perfect backing! I love the little tiles of beautiful color. I know just exactly what you mean about piecing a back. I think it’s because I have a plan for the quilt top and then the back is a hodgepodge of leftovers I try to fit together with no pre-determined pattern. Tires my brain out when I just want to finish!
and so pretty too! ♥
Absolutely perfect!
Beautiful choice!
I agree, it is the perfect backing.
I’m not a great fan of making the backing, I love pieced backings too, but by the time I need to make the backing my mind is already on my next quilt, so I just want to rush it and finish and move on.
Great choice.
Oh, this is gorgeous. The backing is, indeed, perfect with those beautiful colors in the top! The quilting is stunning as well!
Love the colors! I have admired that fabric but always get scared away by the squares!
It`s really perfect!!
I love it when a plan come together like that!
Oooh, it looks great! It feels great to discover the perfect match and then just buy it!
I agree, that is the perfect backing. Especially since i am loving anything green and blue these days. My dilemna with backing…should it match and how much or just how random can it be???
Wowsers, that is amazing the perfect backing!
Great work!
I love the green lady bugs too. I’m trying to not be too envious! 😉
What a great backing – I’d be scared I wouldn’t get the front and back lined up correctly and the squares would run off but it goes so perfectly with the front that I’d probably overcome that fear!
That backing is perfect!!! And I LOVE the front…..wondering how hard it was to do? I am enoying your blog now that I found it and some of your great scrapbuster tutorials…

I’m with you – I love the look of pieced backings, but unwilling to make that extra step myself. For me, I love wide backings, and am always on the lookout for creative ones. Love this fabric!
The backing is perfect and I can’t wait to see it all!
Great job..as always.
