    That is SOOOOO charming, I love it! Not sure the back you've made really goes with the Trip though...

    The Trip is great!! But I feel the same as the others, use the "back" somewhere else!

    I agree with Joyce. The back you have pieced would be a perfect front!!! I love your trip around town, beautiful colors! I must admit though, I have used some very different backs on my wall quilts for an element of surprise!!!!

    I have to agree with the others - I wouldn't use this back on this quilt. I love your Trip Around The Town though - the colors are really nice!

    I have to agree, you don't have a front and a back, you have two wonderful fronts - work on some scrappy backings for both of them and let us see what they grow up to be. They are lovely ladies

    Two seperate beautiful quilts. I think they would look great if you stitched in the ditch on both of them. They always turn out pretty, especially when the blocks are as pretty as yours.

    Love them both, but not together. You did a wonderful job on both.

    Love, love, love the Trip around town. Colors are gorgeous and you would never know it's from scraps. Looks planned. The backing is nice, but I agree with the others - it just doesn't go, but it's your quilt and if you like it, then by all means use it.
