Okay this is where I get stuck all the time, choosing the color of thread to use to quilt. I have a Halloween top already to go but I can't decide on what color to quilt it with help please
TIA Lisa

I hear that gray blends with almost everything, have I done it?, no. Love your quilt!

I'd use a gold or wheat color

What's wrong with black?

Black was the first thing that popped into my head.

I like the thread to show, so I think I'd use orange.

I, too, would use orange or a variegated orange. This is a lovely and fun quilt.

i would use cream on the front and pale orange on the back

Great quilt!!! I'd go with black (1st) or orange.

I have a few black/orange variegated threads from Valdani that I plan on using on a Halloween quilt.

Search for Color#'s M61 and M804

Mind you, the quilt is not even made yet. But I have the thread. :roll:

There are a ton of variegated orange only threads as well.
(It's a wonky website.)


Your quilt is great! Perfect for the season.

How about a big grey spider web that covers the whole quilt, with a spider either appliqued on or quilted into it?

How about green on the front and orange on the back?

When I do Halloween fabrics I usually do orange on the front with black on the back. But you can do anything. I do remember one quilt had so much purple in it that I quilted it with purple thread. You can even switch off.

It looks wonderful. Please post again when you have it quilted.

wow I think that's a great idea but I think it's above my skill level

wow what a great website I bookmarked it :lol: :lol:

I would probably choose this also.

Cute quilt. I use a nuteral color on everything.

Do they make glow in the dark thread? If not black would be my choice.

OOOO, I like this! Maybe in a black to show up well! Or in the glow-in-the-dark thread someone else mentioned.

I'd go with a black.
