Rose Marie, I'm not sure what you mean by 'bringing the backing to the front for sashing'? The method I found on youtube that I'm going to try is, I believe, the one Slightlyoffquilter talked about, but I'll cut my own sashing using 1.5" for the back and 2.5" for the front sashing, the front sashing gets top-stitched. :-)

Mine is the Fun and Done method. You cut the backing larger than the block and batting and bring it to the front with the next blocks backing and sew them togather then fold over and sew down. Easier than cutting extra strips.

If you use fleece as the batting/backing, be sure to pre-wash your fabrics. Fleece is polyester fabric (actually, I think it's made from recycled plastic bottles, which is just another good reason to recycle!) and doesn't shrink.
