Backing Question - Caution: Math Involved!
My quilt top measures 54" x 72" (6 inch blocks set 9 rows by 12 rows). No borders.
According to the fabric calculator I have, it says I need 4 1/4 yards of fabric for the backing. (They use a standard 40" for wof). For the life of me, I can't "see" how to layout the backing. How do I cut or piece it?
I also found a fabric that is 108" wide that I would like to use, but can't figure out how much to buy and how to lay it out. Whatever I do, it seems I am "wasting" a lot of fabric.
TIA
