Default toddler quilt top

I love this bold and very colourful fabric. I'm not sure about how I will progress with the reverse. I was thinking of appliqué ing circles in the primary/bold colours. I originally planned on a large toadstool house and gnome figure but don't have enough of the red spots since I need the little left for a pillow cover. I'm all out of ideas! Any suggestions welcome. I have plenty of the colour fabrics. Thank you [ATTACH=CONFIG]459232[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]459233[/ATTACH]

​Cute top! I would pick a colour for the back that would co- ordinate with the front and binding.

I like your idea for the back. Maybe you could applique white circles on some solid red to make the top of the toadstool since you are out of the red dot fabric.

Very cute, I love polka dots! I used dots in the last 4 quilts that I have made.

That is so so pretty. It looks like it is right out of a story book.

Darling! you might use plain red roofs on the reverse and go with you delightful plan, or buy more (maybe bigger) polka dots. I just looked at www.thousandsofbolts.com they have about 5 or 6 red fabrics with white dots, all about $5/yd.
