Question Muslin and Thread Matching

Got a question for our Muslin ladies out there.

I worked on my sister's Double Wedding Ring design yesterday and I've finally made the decision to go with a natural Muslin, unbleached for the background and for her arcs, I was going to use hand-dyed, ombre fabrics in sage green and red. I used to use just any thread that matched the Muslin when piecing my quilt together, but since this is for my sister, I was planning on using Aurifil, I've noticed that they don't necessarily have a 'natural' color. The one I have found says that it's a Muslin color, but reviews are saying it's kind of a silvery blue color.

What does everyone use for matching thread to Muslin? I really don't want to try and match hand-dyed fabrics to a thread color, I'd rather the thread disappear into the Muslin.
