My backing ended up being just a few inches short and so I had to cut another piece so I can piece the backing together. Since I've never done this before, how do I cut the two pieces in order to sew them together? Do I measure and cut equal distances from each and use a center seam or do it off-center? I was hoping it would fit the lap robe but just in the cards for me today.

Decide how you want it to look, and do it that way. It doesn't matter whether the strip is centered or off-center, especially with a lap robe. Some people don't want a seam in the very center of a bed quilt, but I don't see that as being a problem either.
