If you want to put something on the back, I would suggest a design that was offset - so that if it didn't get lined up "exactly so" - it would not be a big deal
The quilt is breathtaking. Wish I had the time and patience to take one on. I agree with bearisgray. However, I do not care for the red fabric with that quilt. Think a gold or deep orange would be better, or maybe even a batik black or black on black.
