Smweinbeck Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 A pretty minor question, but I’m stumped so thought I’d pose the question. The quilt I’m about to quilt has a lot of white background, and some colored batik shapes pieced in here and there. . It would be considered a modern quilt. With so much white, should I use white thread, or the sort of off-white (linen) Glide? In the past, I’ve steered away from white, thinking it’s too stark or bright, but I have never had an all-white background. Also, if I use white thread, should I use a more neutral (like off-white or light grey) on the batik parts? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qltnbe Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 What about a silvery gray thread that would cover the whole quilt? Of course, it would help to see the quilt for us to make a better suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
