What about a variegated thread? I have one with bright colors: red, green, blue, yellow.

When I don’t want to use a white-white thread, I have a light peach that blends and would work wonderfully in this quilt. :-). Another color I use that blends well is Lemonaid (yellow-Perma Core). This one is a “staple”!

What an adorable quilt. Teddy is going to love it!!! I've used grey when in doubt & it just blends right in to every color. And don't forget that after the quilt is washed the quilting thread seems to just sink right in & is not noticeable.

You could use a monofilament to outline all the animals and Sid for the blocks so no thread change, maybe a variegated for the borders, and your back grounds are great maybe a solid bobbin thread to match the top variegated or even use the variegated in the bobbin as well. Whatever you chose will be loved.

I like the idea of a dull green thread.

My 2cents worth.
Put the orange on the back and use a medium to light orange for the quilting. |
That panel is adorable, do you mind sharing who it's by? As for the quilting I would definitely go with the grey just blends in really well, at least that's been my experience. Good luck!

Light blue or gray thread and crosshatch the whole thing.

How about a variegated thread.

I would like the monofilament thread except that it doesn't feel soft. Wouldn't like it on a baby quilt. Light gray is the best choice, I think. I do like your idea to SID and then outline the animals in each block. It's really a darling quilt!
