Wesing, thanks. I've already cut it, so it's too late to do the diagonal. It is nice fabric, so I don't want to waste it. I'll remember it for the next time, though.
No Petthefabric, 44" is the width it came in. I'll just cut off the pieced edges and cut about a 7" strip and add it to the middle. That way, I won't have to rip out those two pieces on the sides and I'll have plenty of extra for the sides of the back.

Well, Twinkie, I'm a newbie. I've never dealt with this before. I'm learning some stuff the hard way - by experience. Maybe this is an appropriate time to repeat the old saw, "Experience is a dear school and a fool can learn in no other".

For large quilts I cut the backing fabric in half lengthwise, add a piece down the center. For smaller ones I will add a piece wherever To make it wide enough. If need be I have trimmed the side a tad to make it fit.
