Would you consider adding other fabric or blocks to your back for aesthetic purposes? I know you have enough fabric for your backing but this would create an interest on the back.
I wish I had more pictures, but can't find them right now. So here is one of Carrie Nelson's quilts. She is the creator of Miss Rosie's Quilts Co. She may have samples on her website.?.

I think that this is my best option, I tried the John Flynn method on paper, and am not sure that I like it that way. I think I will your suggestion, even though it's not how I have "always" done things, it's ok to step out of the box. I was afraid that it wouldn't look nice with these "pieces" added.
