Default When planning your backing design......

Do you consider how the quilting will affect the design on the backing?

I have only made 5 quilts with creatively pieced backings, and they have turned out fine. Just wondering what you all do.

My current quilt will be stitched in the ditch (outer square edge of each D9P block), but I have a strip on the back I want to do which includes 3 of the remaining blocks. Of course it is impossible to line front and back up perfectly for the stitching to hit the back in the exact same spot. Do you worry about this at all?
