If it was me, I'd go with an orange print that's primarily orange with a little white in it. Then I'd use white thread to quilt it. I'd use white batting and I'd wash the backing fabric before quilting if there's much dark orange in it.
I like Nilla's idea, too - orange with white in it. Or, you could always piece the back with leftovers from the front, if you have enough fabric. Wide horizontal stripes would be striking. Whatever you decide, your quilt is gorgeous. Makes me want to do one like it ... but then, every one I see that I like, I want to do it, too! So little time to indulge! Let us know your decision.
