I did a pattern on the back of both quilts I did for my kids. I used micro swede and the white from the front of my daughters, and when bound gave her a reversible quilt. as a matter of fact, her friend liked the back side better than the front, said it was too girly, being ladybuggs and all!!!! My sons was denim and corduroy, and the back a pattern just of corduroy because I had several pieces that were to small alone. he liked both sides, said it gave him a choice to have showing. I quilted with just the basic straight lines, in a gridwork, and both sides looked good. :mrgreen:
