[quote=Moose]Since I have from dark red to off white to pink to yellow to dark blue ... I'm starting to wonder what color is missing :)

It's really hard to find such thread. Any suggestions? I got a variegated yellow one b/c I intend to do the backing in variegated yellow.

Thanks

I have actually used like the yellow varigated on the back where you want it, then I've used a monofilament on the front. I know...I know...the cotton thread police can come chase me down, but I always use the mono for my stitch in the ditch (because I'm not nearly as good with my matching up as I'd like to be..so it doesn't show with the mono)..then when I didn't want the quilting to take away from a fabric or change the color of it..I've used the monofilament. It seems to work just fine and I don't mind that it isn't 100% cotton.
