I like your quilt. You could even use a variegated to tie it with. Are you using floss or perle cotton or what? Let us know what you decide.

I would do a large stipple, that is how I do most of my quilts. Just me, I don't like tied quilts. Very pretty.

Beautiful quilt!

What color is the backing? Depending on how busy the back is, the ties will show a bit there...do you want them to stand out or blend in? Pretty much any color would look good with the quilt top.
