    I like John James Betweens #11 most, but I've also used Roxanne, Clover, Piecemaker, Richard Hemmings - all size #11 or #12.
    On dark fabrics I use watercolor pencil in a matching color, for light fabrics I do needlemarking with a darning needle.
    My favourite hand quilting thread is YLI, but I also use Gütermann and King Tut of Superior Threads. The top fabric is a fine woven (with a high thread count like 75x75 threads per inch) solid called "Amish Cotton" - but this brand is not longer available here and I prefer P&B or Moda Bella Solids.
    For the backings I like to use flower prints of P&B, Quilt Gate and others.
