Me, too :) I like having something on the back that's a "surprise" when you look at it.

Your quilt is very pretty :)

Beautiful and I think it is a great thing that you make a few extra blocks! I'm sure the residents at the nursing homes love you for it!

Good idea for extra blocks. I made bedroom curtains with my extras.

I never thought about a signature block. Great idea! Will do that from now on.

I even sew the cut off scraps together into a sort of crazy quilt and make the result into a quilt for an old folk or for the palliative hospital - waste not, want not, eh?
