BACKING INTERVENTION

No pictures today. I have spent all day getting ready to put a 'Real' quilt on the longarm (not yet named). It is unbelieveable how difficult it is for me to figure backing. I know, I have been working in miniature for a long time, but, you would think that I could figure backing and stitch it together and get it on the frame. NOT !!!! I spent 4 hours today trying to get this on the frame to no avail. So, I need a remedial course in backing. I need to know how to compute the yardage and how to sew it all together.

HELP !!!
