I'm making a lap quilt for my daughter. It is red and white in the middle, then black and white border around that, then a black border around that with a solid black backing....I can't decide what color thread to quilt with!!! Initially I was going to do white, but since I have the solid black backing it might show, ummm, my mistakes too much!!! Maybe black??? But, then it might be too contrasting on the red and white middle section....Red gives me the same issue on the back....see my problem?
I don't even know how I'm going to quilt yet! There's lots of strips and little squares. So stitching in the ditch will take FOREVER. I might do a meandering pattern or a maze starting from the center. Not sure what it's called, but the one where you just go around and around getting larger and larger squares as you go. "Maze" lol. (Keep in mind I've never done either one of these before). I've done stitch in the ditch and the one where you sew a straight line on each side of the ditch. That's it. Newbie, newbie, newbie.
What do you think?
