Which side of the quilt do you do your quilting?

I do it all the time, especially for children's quilts. I buy a big plaid for the back, or a coordinating checkerboard/patchwork, and follow the lines.
I sometimes buy the bigger print for the back and the smaller for the front for piecing, then follow the shapes on the back. It ties the two together.

I haven't hand quilted from the back, but I frequently FMQ that way. On a child's quilt to be given away, I'll use a fabric with an overall design on the back. My favorite is to FMQ in a loopy-dee-loop design around polka dots. :D
