The backing is the same as the borders, but I just sewed like a pillow leaving an opening for turning then I did simple quilting and stitched close to the edge to be sure I closed the turn opening well. ..here is a close up ... hope this is what you were asking

Glad I did not have these wrapped yet

Those are so pretty & I know they will be loved. I need to make some place mats for myself one of these days. I love your border/backing fabric.

What batt do you use in placemats? I love what you have done here--beautiful fabrics, simply done and a nice frame for dishes placed on them.
