If I tie a quilt, I always use Perle cotton thread. I tie with five per block if it is a 12" block - one at each corner and one dead center. Also, I use a color that matches the block and if it is a print with a white background I use the white Perle cotton. You could also shadow quilt which I have done with the Perle cotton - then I don't tie it. Whatever you like works good! Hey, My Quilt, My Rules! Edie
