I like making things reversible for the holidays. So for the fall (Halloween, Thanksgiving and the season) I made the other side Christmas and used a fall colored varigated on one side and a Christmas one on the other side. It turned out great.

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking black too, or maybe a varigated - had forgot about those. I am a very new quilter I have to keep it simple. The idea of a reversible is a great idea though, I will have to remember that tip. I knew I would get good advice on here, this board rocks.

I love the glow-in-the dark thread for Halloween quilts.
