I need help deciding
#1
I posted last night my frustration with this quilt. I had the back all picked out and then did not have enough to back it with it. Had to get other fabric and what I thought would look good at the store, now I really don't like it. I have to have this done in a week, and really do not want to spend more money on more fabric. How bad does it really look? I have no idea why I thought the other type of design would go? What do you think? It is going to be raffled off, so I was really hoping to do a good job and something I would be proud of. please help... my family is good at telling me how wonderful everything looks but I think they are bias. Sorry for being so long winded. Thanks Beth
my top I used the tube technique (love it)

I think that would be great for the back, what color are you binding it in?

I love the back, I think it definitely compliments the top. The colors on the back do not have to match the top. In fact sometimes it is fun to have the exact opposite. It will make the quilt more interesting.
But it is just another opinion, if it doesn't feel right to you. Than it is not right. That is the main thing.
