I like variegateds for quilting though.

When you use varigated for quilting, do you use it in the bobbin too? I haven't tried varigated yet.
It depends on the backing fabric, and what look I am going for. I have also used a solid on the top and varigated on the back :D:D:D

For piecing I like the neutral colors too.
