    Me too. Solids are hard to tell right from wrong.

    I found a perfect off-white today for 2 1/2 inch strips and backing...$15.00 a metre! Then, I found the same colour on another fabric that had a tiny white pattern on it, but when you turn it over, you can barely see the white pattern at all...on clearance for $5.00 a metre.

    I bought the $5.00 fabric so I'm really hoping there's no reason I can't use the "wrong" side!

    1. You paid for both sides.
    2. Your project.
    3. Your design decision.
    Nope, no reason not to. Lol! Quilt on!

    Sometimes the backs are the best fabrics.

    Would there be any reason NOT to use this as backing?
