I usually try to match my thread to the "background" color of what I'm piecing. I'm using some reds and greys for this project. When it isn't possible or practical to match, I'll usually choose a neutral color. Also, I'm not a perfectionist. If the thread color peeks through a little, I don't stress over it. It usually won't stand out in the finished project if viewed from a distance.
