58-60" wide
Lets say I want to make a bed top cover the width is around 58". The material you get is not 58". Now I know I can add borders and stuff to the edges to make it 58", but what do I do for the back? The back has to be larger, and I do not see anyone adding to it, or maybe I am missing that?

Pieced backing can be as beautiful as the front I like to use fabrics from the front to accent the backing. http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...a-t120335.html This is a link to one I did for DGD. Maybe you can get some ideas.

[QUOTE=salden;5742900]I was hoping that would not be the answer. Ok, so it is the anwer. I suppose I can work the "seam" into the quilting process. I am so new at this stuff[/QUOTEC]
Is there a reason you're opposed to a seam? When you quilt, it should make no difference. Treat the back as one piece of fabric, in spite of the seam.

Not opposed, just not sure if that is what I should do, or was I missing something. I want to be sure I do it right.
