    I love bargellos and yours is beautiful. No advice either, just praise.

    I wish more quilters would see that Bargello pattern is NOT that difficult to do but then I never did a King size. I would look to see if there is a cotton print that has the colors in your quilt. Batiks are a bit of a pain to quilt on both the front and back with the tightness of the weave that batiks have. Great job !!

    Really beautiful (no advice on the backing - just wanted to tell you it was really beautiful).

    Love the colors and the ebb and flow of your Bargello it is beautiful. I have always used what ever makes me happy for the backing or what I have enough of already. So I guess I am not much help.

    It is a beautiful quilt. I have never had any trouble quilting with a batik back and front, but cotton would work just as well. Your choice. Love your colors. Great job!

    So gorgeous. I would buy batik backing for it. I mulled over ordering batik for the one pictured on my avatar and am so glad I did. When the quilter finished, I thought the backing was almost as beautiful as the front, and use it in the summer as the quilt is more for fall and winter.
