    What color of quilting thread to use with this quilt?

    I have put together a quilt using 4 of the Kona Solids - New Classic Palette Charm Pack. It seems to have every color of the rainbow in it. I picked a bright blue for the backing and black for the binding and used 4 black squares for the center charms since there was only 41 charm per package. Any suggestions of what color of thread to do a wandering ditch stitch quilting? I really want the blocks to standout not the stitching?

    How about rainbow variegated thread? I use variegated thread a lot it blends in some places and contrasts in others but if it is on colors, it won't take away from the overall blocks.

      Use a light blue that matches the backing in the bobbin.

      Use this thread on top: Sulky® Premium Invisible Thread 440 Yards Clear at Joann.com

      I like Sulky the best of all the clear threads.

        I like Vonnie's idea. Superior makes a good clear thread, too.
