    I only have one side left to do. I might have this top finished by tomorrow evening. Now I have to decide how I am going to quilt it. My machine quilting skills are fair to middlin'. I was thinking of doing an all-over free motion design with stars. Any ideas on thread color? Should I just use a neutral color or varigated, or blue????

    Looking good!

    My vote is for variegated thread. Can't wait to see it finished.

    Love it-you are doing a great job. I vote for neutral thread. I think the quilt is colorful enough and variegated may detract from your design--but, what do I know-I send my quilts out to be quilted because I cannot make any decisions about quilting!
