This might just be me making a mountain out of a mole hill.
Depends...I'd have to try it out first, but I have used dark threads on light colors mostly. Do you have any scraps left of the same or similar colors that you can test the threads on? You might be pleasantly surprised at the way they look. I rarely change thread colors within the same top. Don't make too much work out of it...it's supposed to be a fun hobby! :)

by the way...black on black is very hard on the eyes!
