OK, I decided to just use a light blue with white back ground with black lines fabric I purchased at Walmart. It's as close to a floral pattern I could find/ It's a pseudo paisley type pattern. I had just enough fabric to make a back from that.
I also, roughly cut out the batting material, leaving it over sized. Do you cut the batting fairly close to the size of the front, or leave it over sized? I am having trouble centering the backing to the front, even though that backing is also over sized.
The only thing I can think of is to start in one corner, setting the backing fabric and batting about an inch out from the front quilt corner, then pin it all the way down both sides. Then I can work my way across the whole thing, pinning as I go until I reach all the remaining corners.
I sure wish I had a table big enough for doing this work. Doing it on the floor is real fun.
