I like changing mine out for the seasons..but if you are short on space for storage..the back of a quilt can sometimes be used at different seasons than the front was meant for. I have a patriotic themed quilt that has red with gold stars for backing..I use that backing side up with my Christmas quilts..same for Autumn quilts..backing is green, looks really nice with my Spring quilts! I find that when I make a seasonal quilt now, I look at my choices for backings very differently..I like when they can serve double duty!
