Thanks everyone for your input. Here's a picture of the quilt top. So, after much deliberation, grumping, wondering if macrame would be a better hobby, and generally moping about I've decided not to use the invisible thread for the quilt....definately will use it in the future; perhaps for something for me, or another adult. Anyhoo, have decided to not do the serpentine stitch either but was thinking instead to do straight line stitching echoing all the chevrons using white thread for the white and a dark grey thread for all the blues. I tried a few rows of the serpentine stitch but to my eyes it just confused the whole effect particularly on the white chevrons...no matter what colour thread I used unless it was white. But then the white thread looked too intrusive on my blues and the idea of changing from white to grey thread every time I crossed over from one coloured chevron to a white one had me breaking out in a sweat and checking my red wine stock in the cupboard!!! So, straight line stitching it is...white in the white chevron rows and grey in the blues. What do you think?
