What a great idea! I'll think about that. I will not handquilt this myself and especially would not if I used a solid back; my quilting is not that good. I'll probably have it quilted and if I used a solid the quilter could do patterns on the solid that would show and look good, I think.
Thanks for the compliment, by the way!
