I am considering buying one of these to attempt my first FMQ on my new JUKI 2010. Has anyone ever used this type of backing? And, I guess I will have to quilt it with the backing on top and the top of my quilt underneath. So, I won't even be seeing the top of the quilt when sewing....this seems strange, but is this how it works?
Here is the link to my potential purchase:

Also, I can not prewash this backing and I do plan on using poly batting (either Hobbs Polydown or Quilters Dream Select). So, what do you think about prewashing or not prewashing the fabric for the top? I am concerned about the fabric shrinking and the batting not, therefore causing pulling, etc. I generally have always been a prewasher, as that is how I was taught.
