Your front and back are perfect together.
I made a reversible quilt for my daughter. I quilted it to coordinate with what I felt was the front. I considered the outlined flowers from that side a design extra for the back. The quilts were totally different patterns so there was nothing to line up. The 'back' was a little small so the little strip to widen it was another design extra. The double seams were no problem, either to quilt or in weight. [ATTACH=CONFIG]548768[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]548769[/ATTACH]

I did a "turning 20", basically fat quarters, on the back of a hunters star, king size and hand quilted, It turned out well, and have used both sides as a quilt rotation. I would shy away from a detailed two sided.

So much good information from everyone!! Jane Quilter - I was actually thinking of doing a Turning 20 pattern on the back. Seemed a good choice if I go this direction for a number of reasons. I'll be using my Elna 740 to FMQ. I just planned on doing an all over meandering pattern (probably stippling). Still need to finish the front first, then I'll make a final decision on which way I am going.
