Hello Creative Adventurers! This week's video is all about choosing a quilt backing. I discuss the four most important things you should consider before you purchase your backing. I highlight over a dozen fabric choices, give you lots of design ideas and examples, and give you some cost saving tips too. Please leave me a comment and tell me what is your favorite quilt backing fabric or what is the most unusual quilt fabric you have used. I'd love to hear from you! Thank you for watching!
