    Its funny how scraps multiple during the night isn't it? I make the same or pretty close to the same pattern using my scraps and didn't make a dent. Since it was so colorful on the front side I used a off white muslin for the back and then used a colored thread to quilt it. Made 4 lap size quilts using my scraps and still have a huge pile of them plus more to come from future quilts. But what fun we have making them, don't we?

    Beautiful quilt. You did a superb job. I also think any fabric you select will be fine, just select a color from the quilt.

    Terrific strings! Very colorful. Any color, or colors, would be great on the back. Could put in extra pieces from front as well.....
