Here is an updated sneak peek of runner, which also may help with my question of what color of thread would you use to quilt it? And also do you quilt over applique, or around it? Echo quilting or what?? I have many pretty multi-colored threads by Sulky, but I know sometimes variegated threads can have a color that "blends" too much with the quilt and then it looks like part of the quilt wasn't quilted...how do you get around that? I am finally breaking out from my old school "back with muslin and quilt with neutral thread"...but it's still hard for me to figure what color(s) thread to use... The backing fabric is multicolored, has colors the same as the front and some others along with them. Thanks in advance for helping!

I need to give it a final pressing before layering it for quilting..those are creases from matching the border up, not seams...
