It’s not really clever, but you just make a backing that’s not designed to be centered or symmetrical!

for example, I’ve done a backing that’s solid, but has a strip of orphan blocks about a third of the way from the edge. It’s obvious it’s not meant to be centered, but a few inches this way or that won’t make a difference.

I don’t try to make it a reversible quilt, just add some interest (and economy) to the back.
