Popping In With a Quilt Backing Sale!

For just a couple of days, Fat Quarter Shop has quilt backing and wide yardage on sale.  I love extra-wide backing which is usually cheaper than piecing together yardage and saves a lot of time and hassle.  I couldn't resist this full-on rainbow backing, which I purchased and am going to make a whole cloth quilt for myself with.  Can I just say, YUM!?!  Check it out right  here.  You'll be happy to know I didn't buy it all and saved some for ya.  :)

At first I thought I would use a blue plaid as the backing because I'd never get tired of seeing a beautiful blue {click here to go right to that beautiful backing.}  However, I have some Widescreen backing in gray already in my stash, so I'll be using that.

And then while I was shopping the 20% off Basic of the Month, this fabric caught my eye as the perfect black background fabric, so it's now coming home with me too.  :)  A whole ginormous bolt!  It's only $6.38 a yard.  Just sayin'.  See it right here.

You'll find all of the backings linked to from the slider image on Fat Quarter Shop's home page right here.

Twin Rosewood Lane Quilt | Finished or Not Friday Linky Party

Welcome to Finished or Not Friday where you can share your finished {or not} projects!

My finish is a Rosewood Lane Twin XL quilt in Strawberry Fizz.  This is a quick pattern for an "organized" scrappy quilt.

This is a twin XL at 98" long.  Lands alive!  I made extra blocks and intended to use them for a baby quilt but just kept adding rows to the quilt without counting. I realized my mistake before quilting it, but forgot to take them off and even made the batting in the larger size without noticing.  So twin XL it is!

Aren't the tiny strawberries and flowers just adorable?!?  I love the mix of tiny checks in there as well.  This is Strawberry Fizz, one of Craftsy's new fabric collections.

Quilt Stats:

Pattern:   Rosewood Lane, pattern available here.
Size:  Twin XL (extra long), approx 70" x 98"
Fabric:  Strawberry Fizz from Craftsy.
Quilting:  Loopy daisies on Gratitude.
Batting:  Hobbs Heirloom 100% Cotton
Backing:  Extra wide tiny pink/red circles on white from Red Rooster.

This quilt is for sale in my quilt shop!

I have some exciting news to share with you!!  I have begun purchasing quilt backing at wholesale by the bolt for quilts I make and am now selling the extra in my pattern shop at excellent prices!  Here are the fabrics listed so far.  Check it out HERE!
