I've finished the top of my Happy Mochi Yum Yum quilt. It's 62 1/2 by 82 1/2 which is bit larger than most of my quilts. I need 5 yards of fabric for the backing which translates into big $$$.
I don't usually like spending my fabric budget (budget? huh?) on backing. I have a bolt of Kona white so I thought I'd piece together some of that with leftover Mochi.

It’s actually a nice and useful piece of post. I am glad that you simply shared with us. Thanks!
Hmmmm. I think the Yum Yum quilt is sweet and the other quilt is yummy!
Oh my this is sooooo beautiful, really love the colors & fabric, pretty, pretty, pretty!!!!!!!
I feel exactly the same when it comes to backings, oh boy they sure do end up costing a lot. Sometimes I look for a real nice flat sheet to use.
Have a lovely week

What a beautiful quilt! It will be stunning when it's finished. I love the colors and the design.
Love your quilt! The pattern, the fabrics and the colors are so fresh and pretty!
Your quilt is fun and cheery. Just like all of your quilts!
Love the tumblers; poor Mr White socks, at least he had a pretty view!
I love your quilt and can't wait to see what you do with the back!
Okay, I know I'm getting older, but I don't think the one Mr. W.S. is holding up is Happy Mochi. It's pretty, though!

I like the happy prints in both of these tops. They make you smile, for sure! Congrats on having a quilt holder in socks, but they don't always stay white outside, lol ~

Have you ever backed with a vintage sheet? I have a few saved aside to do just that. Lovely quilts!

oh I really like your mochi quilt - one of my favs I've seen. And your tumblers! So awesome! How is that one to piece together? Have yet to try it...
Well, those are just beautiful! I'm your newest follower! Have a happy day!
So pretty it reminds me of spring!
Oooo so pretty! Why not just use up stash scraps and make a scrappy back?
Love this!! So fresh and fun!!
Your Mouchi quilt is beautiful. Which pattern did you use??
Missing your posts! Saw a note from you somewhere about quilt retreats up this way. I'll look into it! I don't know of any in my area. I think renting a big boat and taking sewing machines out for the day could be awesome!! :-)
The Yum yum quilt looks absolutely adorable! I love that fabric collection! Your tumbler quilt looks so cute and cheery with the bright fabrics, it's gorgeous! :)
