I need to get the back to the same size as the front in a manner that looks good. I don't have any more of the prints I used in the signing side and i really don't want to have a huge border on the back. I was going to do I SPY sq. but I am having trouble getting things to come out evenly. I am tuning the front border around to the back to bind it so I loose 3" there all the way around and I could use a sash of the same pink fabric for an additional border on the back. I do hope this is making sense. I appreciate any suggestions as I was in hopes of getting this quilted this week. Hmmmmm.
Your top and bottom borders need to be 7 1/2" wide
The sides (vertical) need to b 8" wide.

This will give you one extra inch to fold around to the back :D
