The last baby quilt I did red embroidery thread on top and pink cotton in the bobbin (the back is pink/white zebra like print) and the top had solid red fabric between hexagons. I also tested it on a sample sandwich using the backing fabric and top fabric to make sure my tension was good.

I used the ladder stitch (looks like a double sided blanket stitch) to quilt the top. I went over every seam since it was for a baby and would probably be washed quite a bit.

If you are confident with your quilting then try like others have suggested with a pretty gold embroidery thread in the bobbin. Do a practice piece first and see which you like.
