I like to match the thread but it is your quilt and any way is fine...

I usually match thread to applique. No matter what stitch i'm doing. I tend to wander a bit.

Wow - I Google/image a lot of things but hadn't thought about SBS images - that really gets the old imagination going. Thank you for mentioning it.
