Backing or Quilt?

Well we are in our last month of Winter and I am so looking forward to Spring. It has been a really cold winter this year. Come on sunshine. I have added pictures of my latest quilt. This quilt was actually made as a backing for another quilt which I am unable to show you for the moment as it is still at the quilters. My sewing group that I go to every second Thursday convinced me to make it as a quilt and as I'm not a lover of the colour Brown I'm not sure I have made the right choice, so please make a comment on what you think. Did I do the right thing making it as a quilt or should I have left it as a backing?

And yes we have a few of our inquisitive cattle in the background.
