Easiest Way to to add Backing to your quilt

Extra-wide fabric makes backing your quilts fast and simple. Wide quilt backing fabric comes as wide as 108” and allows you to back your quilt with a single piece of fabric, eliminating the need for seams. This makes the look of the back side as good as the front and keeps your quilt nice and flat. And the choices of backing fabrics today are increasing. Beautiful quilt backings are easy to create.
