I agree with this. Also, how good is the quilter? I wouldn't want to use a bright raspberry colored thread on the white background unless I was using my PC Quilter because I'm not good enough to do it free hand. If I was just going to meander or pantograph over the whole quilt--I would use a white to match the background so the piecing is what shows off--not the quilting.
