Will this work?

I am making this for a friend to give to her niece as a gift. The front of the quilt is very masculine...the back I wanted a little softer. With the front being so square and hard - will the back look ok with the swirls? Its hard to see - bad lighting - but the brown has blue swirls the same as the middle fabric.
Do you think it will be ok?

Sure! I usually do swirls or softer wavy lines on geometric piecing like that. It nicely mixes together! Whoops, I think I misunderstood--your proposed backing fabric blends great with the front. New and contrasting fabrics on the back add overall interest to a quilt, I think.

I think I remember you being worried about this quilt as you were piecing it, but it looks great. Your friend's niece will love it! Your choice for the back looks really good too. I think you can quit worrying about this beauty...
