Choosing backing and binding of a scrap quilt...
#12
I'm in the process of putting the backing together for my Garfield quilt. I have lots of cat theme fabrics, none of them are chunks, mostly 1/2 yard. I'm going to cut big blocks, sew them and that is going to be the backing for the Garfield. I've decided yet on the binding, wish I had a fabric of little kitty foot prints and I would then cut my own bia tape for the binding. Anyone else make their own bia binding?

I use leftover strips of fabric from the scrappy quilt and make the binding. For the backing I try to match with a predominate color I used on the front, muslin, a solid color bedsheet, or several large pieces of fabric sewed together to make four quadrants.
