I just finished the sailboat quilt top for my grandson. Because of my beginner miscalcultions it is smaller than I anticipated. I was going for a twin size but it measures about 54x76 which I figure is about 10 inches shy on all sides to be a twin. The picture below is pretty fuzzy. I am considering attempting my first try at free motion quilting. I want to use the Sulky Blendables in the Primary Colors 500 yd spool for the top and probably a plain white in the bobbin.

FINALLY the question: How much of the Sulky thread should it take using the blendables on the top only?
