This is a flannel quilt that I am making for my brother - my first large quilt, 80 x 100". It is spray basted and ready to quilt. I'm can't seem to make up my mind how I should go about it, so am hoping you folks will help me come up with something suitable. It will probably be washed a lot, as my brother has some compulsive issues.

Should I SID on my Singer? FMQ on my old 830 Bernina? Both? That much SID makes me have second thoughts about it. I wanted to do an allover leaf design in fmq, but then what color thread would I use? I have dark blue for SID. I have a brownish gold for the leaves. Maybe I should do both? ?? :?:

Any thoughts or suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
