ksdot417 is brilliant! Use foam and cover both sides, one light and one black. I think I will do this. Thanks ksdot417.

It may just be the pictures, but the black seems to make the colors stand out more. I think the idea of making it with foam board and putting white on one side and black on the other is a very good idea. The only problem I can see is the black showing through the background and distorting the colors on the quilt.

The foamular board I used (it's found at a home improvement place in their insulation section) is about 2 inches thick so I it won't show through. It's really sturdy and can even be cut down to fit the space.
