Yes she used a very thin fabric, I didnt show it but I did get a cream color to back them with. The blocks will not only be backed with the cream but they all will be bordered with it also because some of them are not square... so the only thing I can do because I cant cut them down was to add to the size. I'm hoping to get it done by her birthday at the end of next month, if i work hard I might be able to do it for christmas.
