Oh well have plenty to piece but it's going to be a hassle to do it by hand while rest of quilt is rolled on the LA.
I just did this. Pulled out a stored quilt to FMQ. Rolled the batting and both pieces on their boards. When I started to pin, the backing wasn't wide enough. Ran to the store and purchased more'. When I got to the end, I had enough backing left that I wouldn't have had to buy that yard of fabric. I had it turned the wrong way. Oh, well. I wasn't about to unpin it, so now my binding will be from the leftover. Glad I'm not the only one.
