True I could just add a strip to the sides to give me something to grab onto and I may have to end of doing that if I can't find any backings wider. I've been told that I will never find a batik wider than 108" so I've quit looking for them. The Sangria BOM is made up of all batiks though so its sad to think I might have to go with something totally off the wall for it.

All suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Won't need it till the beginning of next year at the earliest but I like to have all my fabrics beforehand. As it is I'm still waiting on 1 fabric I ordered back in late October from Hancock and have yet to get it. I'm just about ready to cancel it and look elsewhere as all I need it a yard or 2 at most. I'm doing the Fantasia Tree frackered as someone had done and then add blocks of some sort around it to make it queen size.

Thanks again for any help.
The latest Hancock Fabrics ad I have has quilt backings bigger than 108" (I believe they are 30 percent off right now).
