Sorry, all closets are jam packed to the brim. But you can come help me use it up. There is always room for one more.

I bought silk/bamboo batting and am planning to back it with silk velvet. Yeah!!! What was I thinking when I started this?!?! I am now ready to put sashing. I like some of the brights in it, but only have 1 yard pieces, so will have to piece the sashing. I have 2 yd pieces of the paler greens and beiges, but want to use one of them for a border. I will welcome any and all ideas.

Update: Slept this whole quilt all night, planning the backing etc. Got up and did some measuring this morning and realize that I don't have enough of the silk velvet I was planning on using. PHOOEY!!! Well, back to square 1. Went on fabricmartfabrics.com and lo and behold they had some really funky silk velvet that I think will look really "gnarly" for the backing. Can't wait to get it and try it out. So now I can't do any more till that comes. I have 2 different colors for sashing, a tannish color and a sageish color; won't put that on till the funky stuff comes. Can't wait to post it. You guys will DIE :roll: :lol: :roll:
