Your quilt is absolutely beautiful. Will you share your pattern name with us?

I think, since the background fabric is cream, I would choose a darker shade (a couple of shades darker, perhaps an ecru) for the quilting and use the same thread top and bottom. This would make the quilting show, but wouldn't take away or overpower the beautiful star center. ;-)
The pattern is called "Diamond Star Log Cabin" I designed it without a pattern, however you can buy a similar one from Dunster here on the board.
