Default Quilting dilema...how should I do this?

I have made a Christmas quilt with redwork blocks alternating with star blocks on the top. I used extra star blocks (from a swap) on the back. Now I don't know how to quilt it! Should I quilt in the redwork blocks, or would that "take away" from my handwork? The blocks are about 10" square, so probably will need some sort of quilting. And, then there's the back....since the stars on the back don't line up with those on the front, I think I'll just have to pretend they aren't even there. You can see a picture of the quilt here:

Would you use a thread that sort of "disappears", or would you go with red, or green, or varigated? I'm at a standstill on this one!!
