If I were holding the veil, with it behind me, how should the place be that would be at the back of my neck?
I am attending a workshop in a couple weeks, with a segment on 3/4 circle veil...and I have never worked with one before.

I don't make a point of trying to soften the angle. I just do the best I can to hem it neatly.
I concur with the suggestion of tissue lamé for double veil or silk for floaty wafting veil. Another good fabric can be double georgette. It all depends on what style of movement the workshop will focus on. I suggest contacting the workshop instructor or sponsor and asking what kind of fabric is recommended for this particular instructor's style.
