    would you suggest I use burgandy for the bottom thread?

    The quilt is gorgeous. I am more of a natural thread kind a quilter. But as beautiful as the quilt is, I am sure anything you choose will be great.

    Your quilt is very pretty! I love the idea of the feathers too!

    I would choose a taupe or a deep cream, depending on the tone of the background.

    Hello Pineapple Princess:
    My first impression is WOW, I WANT TO MAKE THAT ONE TOO!
    Very nice work and I love the colors. I would also do a dark cream or pink and use one color on both front and back. I agree on the feathers. Add some borders (narrow, wide, narrow) for balance and to complete the look. Great job. What's your next project?

    It's very beautiful. What about red thread in the white and cream areas and cream or white thread in the red areas. It would really show up.

    Another question - Should I do an all-over feather design, or try design separate similar patterns for each section on the quilt?
