I have a ton of neutrals and I'm trying to use them up and then I will color match with the material.

I use a blendable thread. Beige, gray etc.

I hand quilt. On quilts with a white background I use white. On other quilts I use an off-white, natural color. I make more traditional quilts so I seldom use very dark colors.

I use all colors too, depending on fabrics. I always use cotton thread.

I hand quilt as well. Depends on the quilt but most times I used colored thread to have it show more in the quilt. It's usually a coordinating color but I figure if I'm putting that much work into something I want it to be seen!
