Default satin quilt

I have about 11 yards of beautiful Barbizon satin in a peach color. The fabric is beautiful but I don't know what to do with it. It is at least 40 years old. I have recently thought of making a king size quilt for my bed....not a bedspread, just a quilt. I am concerned about the satin slipping off my bed. I wondered if I should put some other fabric on the back of the quilt or should I use satin all the way around? I planned to have it machine quilted with cotton batting so when I wash it the cotton batting will shrink. What are your thoughts on this dilemma? I really enjoy reading all of your ideas on quilting as I am a beginner! Love to all.
