Default Question: SID and hand quilting on same quilt

I have a question for you experts. Sure you can help. I did a quilt top, Patriots in petticoats, which has 14 ten inch blocks of different designs with log cabin around, ribbon border, then piano key border. Since I want it to be "all mine" but I am still learning FMQ, I was thinking about basting it, then doing SID straight lines using my walking foot (enough so it meets the stitching requirement for the batting used). Then I thought about hand quilting designs OR doing binding and later going back and doing FMQ when I am better at it. What do you think? Pros or cons with combining stitch techniques. How would it look on the back which is an all over floral? Thanks. I'll try to post a picture.
