    I am not the "maker of blankets" LOL...I tend to stick to the artsy stuff. But, a dear friend gave me this quilt kit featuring tonga batiks called "solar flare".... I just finished the piecing, now have to buy backing fabric and give this free motion quilting a go... haven't decided on a design yet...any suggestions..also I have no idea what color thread to quilt with?
