Default Newbie Quilter Questions

Hello,

I am making my first quilt. So far I think it has gone pretty smoothly. I am about to make the quilt sandwich, and I understand I need to baste/saftey pin it well, then sew the layers together. I am planning to join the layers together by hand, not by machine.
  1. Do I use invisible quilting thread? Color thread? Does it matter? Advice on either?
  2. Do I use a running stitch? Another type? Does it matter?
  3. I will do a a little bit of "stitch in the ditch" and I am thinking about adding a simple pattern too. Any advice on this?
Thanks so much in advance!
