It's been so long since I finished my top, that I promised myself I would get it finished this year. So I pulled out some fabric to make a pieced backing - 4 large (40") swoon blocks. Finished that this weekend, took photos of my 95x95" top, and then looked at the original. I had added borders it to make it rectangular - and it measures 91x106". I was completely wrong about the size of this quilt, even without the borders (I figure it must have been 72x72"). So now what? My new back is too wide, so I can't just add to the ends and make it fit. Back to the drawing board, I guess.
