I was going to be good and not buy the backing fabric for "Bad Romance" until Monday, since I knew I wasn't going to get the kitchen floor clean enough to baste until Monday.
But, you know how it goes. The LQS had a sale. 20% off if you finish a bolt four yards or less. I needed 3.33 yards for the backing, so I had to find a bolt that was over 3 but under 4 yards.
3.75 yards of perfection! (RJR Momma's Apron Strings)
All the right colors, and the plaid echoes the postage stamp in the top.
I also picked up the kit for the next block for the Saturday Sampler.

So I'm still under 20 yards up, and I will be very motivated to finish projects once the Dude gets back to school on Monday!
Check out how everyone else is doing at Patchwork Times!
That was great that you were able to find a bolt with the correct amount on it
