gcathie, what's MOTHER GOOSE?
I will do this, too, when I'm using "whatever" fabric.
If the project is only one or two colors, I try to use a thread that is close.
If I'm sewing white to a darker color, I will use the darker color. If I'm sewing white to white, I will change the threads and use white both top and bottom.
I mainly use Coats & Clarks Dual Duty All Purpose - seems to work well for me. That's what my first quilt class instructor suggested.
What do you use?
