If you make your quilts double sided you just reduced your UFO pile by half, reduced your batting expense by half, reduced your storage size by half, eliminated the need for buying backing fabric. I've been doing this since the mid-90's.

whatever top you chose to use on the reverse side, chose one at least 10" smaller than the side to be quilted. Add your extra border for the quilter. Every one I've ever used has done really well in lining front and back up pretty square and the extra fabric gives some visual float room.
