Personally, I would pick a color just slightly darker than your markings. If the markings are in white then I would go with a medium gray. Or a silver metallic would be awesome. Superior threads brand metallic runs well through my machines.

Depends what you are going to do with when you are finished, I love brights with black, turquoise, cerise, purple orange, or even white to give the sashiko type contrast, whatever you choose it’s going to be stunning.

Outstanding stencil work! My first response would’ve been a bsroegsted rainbow metallic, but after studying it more, I think I’d choose one color for each motif. Jewel tones on black are my favorite!
For example, turquoise for all the large medallions in each square, for the interlocking arches, fuchsia for the flowers, and so on. I’d color it all in a rough sketch on paper first. It’ll take extra work to change, but the result would be eye-popping cool!
