Default What to do with applique =p

I am working on a huge, king, quilt right now. This will be my third quilt but the first quilt that i use free motion techniques with and fill up the whole quilt. The quilt is going to have some large pieces of appliques which are dolphins and a sun. Im not sure if i should put the appliques on top of the quilt and then quilt the whole thing over it or if i do it this way but do different patterns on the different parts of the quilt. Im mostly just worried about how it will look on the back of the quilt. The back is a solid piece of tan fabric and since the quilt will look more like a picture than a very symmetrical pattern i dont want the back to look like a mess. I really hope this makes sense , its alot easier to visualize or talk out loud about than it is to type.
