I would put a light to the side of your model and point it to the sheet close range, to light it up brightly in a difuse matter witht the umbrella to make the sheet very white and place the other light on the other side pointing at the model a bit further away to eliminate the possible shadows on the sheet. The way you are going to light up your model on this side depends on what you need to acheive as a result. Is it going to be a direct lighting, are you using cookies? will you use a Gell to warm up or cool down the colors? Will you use an umbrella that is reflective or shoot trough. Play around with your gear is my best advice and share the results with us.
I hope i helped out a bit.

what are cookies?
i dont really want direct light as in flash i guess, but id like for her to be lit nicely, no dramatic shadows, so diffused light will be on her at all times
no gels
probably reflective umbrella pointed at her
thank you so much for your advice!
so i guess what i can gather from this is that the light behind the sheet isn't the best placement?
the big problem too ,is that i dont have much room to shoot in, so i dont have much room to back up and get rid of any warping of her body through the lens because of the close proximity to her
