I have made a wallhanging and when I took it to the quilt shop to get fabric for the border the lady said why do't you make a scrappy backing. I was wondering if any of you have ever done this. Do you have to use the same fabric s as in the quilt and what size squares do you make etc.

I am definitely going to make a scrappy binding after it is quilted and I am going to use the fabrics that are in the wallhanging. So, I may not have enough of the same fabrics for both the backing and the binding. Any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.
