Thanks BarbaraSue and all who have made suggestions for me! All your ideas are great, but the thread will be plain black as the kids want it that way (and I agree). I'm going to go with the vine idea modified a little and I can do it (hopefully) as a continuous line. My DD and I will layer it this weekend (I bribed her big time!) Then I'll probably "ponder" for a day or two before I start! Will keep all of you great friends posted! Thank you all!

Are you going to maintain the black and white, or have you entertained colored thread done like I mentioned in the flowers. Yellow centers, blue or pink or red petal accents. Just as idea.
You'll make it beautiful however you do it.
