Since you are doing SID then just use the purple.

I think a gold would be pretty. Have you thought of taking some of the scraps and experiment with different threads? By the way, I dearly love how your runner turned out. Marvel

It is beautiful. I agree with the purple on bottom and metallic gold on top.

I like using the varigated threads becasue they tend to bring all the colors together and look so pretty on the backing. Good Luck! |

I would use purple for the back and a varigated for the top...Or use varigated for both sides..

There are beautiful varigateds that would be pretty on this runner :D:D:D |
Cute runner!! I think all of the suggestions would work! Have fun!!

i would quilt 1/4" out from the seam. Would give better definitation. If you are having difficulty with bottom thread showing on top, I would use same thread on the bottom. Then there would be a nice quilting pattern on the back.
