First Frost Bessen en Pijnboom-Crème-108" brede achterkantstof-3 yards

The 108-inch width meant I didn't have to piece anything for a full-size project, and the cream ground made the berry and pine motifs pop just enough without stealing the show. Soft hand, too, which I wasn't expecting from a backing.

I backed a queen quilt with this and the 108" width meant zero piecing on the back, which saved me a ton of time. The berries and pine branches are subtle enough that it doesn't fight with a patterned quilt top.

I backed a winter quilt with this and the 108" width meant zero piecing on the back, which saved me hours. The ecru ground is warmer than plain white, so the berry and pine sprigs read soft rather than holiday-ish. Drapes nicely too, no stiffness right out of the fold.
