Help Help Help, what color thread to quilt a baby quilt
1 Attachment(s)
I am about ready to quilt my University of Illinois baby quilt. What color do you suggest? I have been told not to use monofiliment thread on baby quilts. That would be my first choice. Navy... light blue... MMMM any suggestions. Thanks I knew I could count on you ladies for help. I am just doing diagonal lines... I have blue painters tape already on quilt to help me with the quilting.

well usually we use beige or a gray if you don't want it to stand out too much. but if you quilt well, why not use white or blue or red?
|
I myself would use a light blue. If you really want you lines to stand out, you could do a navy or red. I think it would be nice either way.
|
I would suggest you have your quilt layed out now addition the thread on the top unravel a good amount and see how it looks on the top. Nice quilt top
|
I'd probably use a variegated red and blue.

No opinion but I really like your quilt.
|
UI orange would be my choice.
|
Since it's a University of Illinois quilt, colors are navy and orange. If you're a good quilter, I'd see if you could find a navy/orange variegated. If you don't want the quilting to stand out, use a light blue or grey.
|
Since its a baby quilt you want bright colors.....what about orange?
|
i would use light blue. cute quilt!
|
light blue would work and the quilting would contrast in the large squares
|
no opinion, but very pretty! love the painters tape idea!
|
Light blue, or variegated red, white and blue, or red. The possibilities are endless.
