An all over design of flowers and swirls. I think a yellow patterned backing would be pretty. or gray pattern.

I agree.... so at this point I am going to do what i wanted to do all along... I might put flowers in the plain big squares.. maybe... but gray thread, gray backing.. and simple, can't see it anyway, the quilt is too busy... she is learning to quilt, and I am teaching her that a busy quilt needs simple... a plain quilt needs more quilting...
Thanks for your input :)

You win!!

Sorry, both. I like the black backing, but also the aimple all over design.

Much as I love black, you need to tell your daughter that the quilting will not show up as well as gray. So all her leaves, flowers, etc. Will really be lost. The gray with gray thread will show the quilting. Perhaps you can find a pantograph using the more open designs with flowers and leaves, for a co promise. I love your quilt, and think it's more attention grabbing in your colors, than busy.

I think a gray backing would be nice. Black would show ever speck of lint. Then a simple design for the quilting. If you do the leaves etc. it will be lost in the of the quilt, because it is busy. I love the colors of the quilt. Nice job.
