Now the back was tricky because the purple solid had the standard WOF. So in order to make the backing the same size as the top fabric I had to cut a piece 56" long and turn it sideways to fit across. The I had to take the rest of what was given to me and cut it into thirds then sew the thirds together to get another piece that was 56" long. I sewed those 2 pieces together to make the backing fit. It was perfect. Good thing...math.
I quilted pretty butterflies on the quilt using variegated pinks/purples/white thread on the top and a solid light purple thread in the bobbin. I like the results. The lesson I learned is that I can easily make charity quilts just by sandwiching batting between two pieces of fabric and get an amazing result.
