Default Finally figured out what to do with the backing...Cat in the Hat meet the CG

[ATTACH=CONFIG]436052[/ATTACH]I am in my no buy mode still...I have spent less than 40 dollars this year on fabric. I find it does makes me more creative and think out of the box. I made a Dr. Seuss tumbler top and its been unfinished for months. I just could not decide what I wanted to use for the backing. Then yesterday morning it hit me...I have some left over panels from another projects and also a large quilt top that I was just not thrilled about. it was 12 inch blocks sewn together...Coast Guard fabric, lighhouse and boats. I decided to cut off a few rows for my border and also use the left over ten inch blocks for the backing to applique Dr Seuss prints - so here is my Cat in the Hat meets the Coast Guard Quilt.
