Quilt solutions - part 1

Quilt solutions #1 Backing fabric too small?
At Koolkat Quilting, we need 4" all round, or 8" longer and 8" wider so we can comfortably quilt your quilt. If the backing is too small, or you just have to use that special fabric, left over blocks or labels, make a pieced backing. Hint: If KoolKat is quilting your quilt, make the pieces near the edges large so that seams won't be right where your binding will be stitched later. Here's the back of Carol's gorgeous Batik quilt.
