Two 108" wide quilt backing fabrics from the Shooting Star collection, in two very different moods.
This bundle is one 3 yard cut of Current Water and one 3 yard cut of Current Mango, designed by Anna Maria for Anna Maria Textiles. Both carry the same flowing print of leaves, fish, birds, stars and botanical linework. Water is the cool one, in blues, aqua, teal and green. Mango is the warm one, in gold, orange, pink and lilac. With one of each in your stash, the next quilt top that comes off the machine already has a backing waiting, whichever way its colors lean.
What each colorway is for
-
Water. Quilt tops in blues, greens and purples, ocean and garden quilts, and any quilt that wants a calm, cool back.
-
Mango. Quilt tops in warm brights, pinks, oranges and golds, summer quilts, and any quilt that deserves a cheerful surprise on the back.
No seam down the middle
Standard quilting cotton is 44 to 45 inches wide, so backing anything bigger than a lap quilt means buying two lengths and joining them. Each piece of this wide quilt backing is 108" x 108" in one continuous piece.
Backing and batting should be larger than the quilt top. Most longarm quilters ask for 4" to 6" extra all around, so each piece covers a quilt top up to about 96" x 96", which takes in most throw, twin and queen size quilts.
Perfect for
- Quilt backs, from throw size up to queen
- Longarm and domestic machine quilting
- Whole cloth quilts
- Any project where a seam would show
