Question is - because I will be quilting on different color backgrounds what color thead should I use and can anyone suggest how to quilt this. The quilt will be 68" X 80" so lots of room to practice. Thanks for any suggestions.
Since this is for practice I'd quilt each square with different color thread and I'd experiment with different background fillers. Leah Day has 365 different filler designs on her web site.
