But enough time went by with my green paper lanterns quilt, and I don't have any shopping opportunities here, so I did it, and I even got it straight when I layered the quilt! Love all your backs and I appreciate the inspiration!KaHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02528677007819875856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-16986951812498779642017-06-21T11:44:24.555-05:002017-06-21T11:44:24.555-05:00Plan ahead?

One quilt that I absolutely love is my Blogging Buddies friendship quilt that I put several orphan blocks on the back because I didn't have enough of the fabric that I liked for the back. It looks really neat. I need to do that more often! Yours look great!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11912222251238739813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-41226954178204465142017-06-21T01:25:57.259-05:002017-06-21T01:25:57.259-05:00Interesting post!

I generally have plain wide fabric backings - the odd time I've used a pieced backing the seams haven't turned out straight down/across the back which has frustrated me (in spite of careful planning!) (Hehe I'm not organised enough to think of getting the backing when I'm still planning the quilt!)Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-46682050649982711072017-06-20T20:15:43.650-05:002017-06-20T20:15:43.650-05:00While you said on my APQ Friends quilt it was plan...While you said on my APQ Friends quilt it was planned that way, I would have never ever thought it was a mistake; I knew immediately it was meant to be that way, and I love it! And I thank you again for making it so very special on both sides! I guess I should tell you, I think I'm about to enter that situation very soon on my current project; it seems to keep growing. I love your method of recovery!

I've done one or two of them where I wanted the back to have something nifty: some kind of design from the front continued on the back (like Northern Lights or Stained Kites). And several were very scrappy quilts, in which I was piecemealing everything with whatever I had on hand. So far I've been lucky and haven't screwed up on backing yardage... but it's only a matter of time!PaintedThreadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430500003121265452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-62304004772846041482017-06-20T11:03:00.557-05:002017-06-20T11:03:00.557-05:00I only piece a back when I have too.

However I did piece a back for a baby quilt just to use up the extra fabric and it was kind of fun to figure out how to make it look nice but it took me quite a while to get it right. Might not do it again but who knows?🤔😉Cheryl@home stitchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14233778533827152888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-71181996381955575282017-06-20T07:44:17.836-05:002017-06-20T07:44:17.836-05:00Lovely quilts and I love your pieced backs.

I no longer hand quilt so the extra seams don't concern me. I feel it makes a two sided quilt! It also helps with the ever growing piles of scraps.

Another advantage is I don't add as much to the ever growing piles of scraps!

Yours look nice. I can just picture the last one since the column was there. I almost always piece my backs because I work out of my stash whenever possible.

I think they add interest to the quilt -- a nice little surprise on the back! I do pattern testing and usually have a stack of lovely blocks that weren't made for a specific project so I often include them in a quilt back. Or I use up leftover pieces from the quilt's front or from other projects. There are so many options!Lisa Englandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15017561924541178564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3805690613494438271.post-59620525482837273172017-06-20T01:33:14.324-05:002017-06-20T01:33:14.324-05:00I can't recall doing anything more than seams ...I can't recall doing anything more than seams between lengths of fabric to form the backs of my quilts. I have had to add yardage a time or two when I fell short.
