I checked this site and it said I needed 20.45 ys of backing WHAT!!!! Then I noticed it said for diaginal backing. I know that I can back a 75x90" quilt with 6yds of 45" fabric. sew 3yds together lengthwise making backing peice 85 x 108. Now I ask the sales person to cut 3 yd peices. I may also check into the 108" backing since it really does seem cheaper! I am not really picky about my backing colors.
