1 Big Tip On What Do You Do When Your Machine Quilting Customer Cuts ✂ Their Backing Too Short

We have all received wonky batting from our Machine Quilting Customer, like when they cut the backing too short.

It is better to find out before you load it for sure and you machine quilt to the bottom pins or zipper and the backing is shorter than the quilt....DRAT!

This week it happen to me when loading a Veterans Quilt for my Quilt Guild. I have 4 more to go, hopefully they have enough fabric.

After turning it every which way I decided to add an extra 12" of fabric to the backing length after I squared it up.
