What colour thread would you use?

[Chchchchanging]

My first ever quilt
Black white top
Chartreuse back
What stitch colour?
Am soooo nervous to use my walking foot for first time

White thread, deffo. Will lift the chartreuse, give texture on the white & contrast nicely with the black. Silver is another possibility.

having said that, alternative could be a pale gray, but I think it will wash out on the chartreuse.

ps: you owe us pics when done :). Are you using a darning foot for the fancy stuff?

Have you considered a variegated thread? Black/grey/white could be quite effective. Would probably just go for white if it was me.
Welcome to the wonderful world of quilting, it's very addictive!

There's a word for the type of continuous quilting pattern you'll be wanting... does anyone remember (driving me batty).

Pantograph, that's it. Mine are pants but you only get better with experience.

What about a complete contrast like cerise pink? Would show up beautifully on the black and white and is practically opposite chartreuse on the colour wheel.

Thanks all!
All inspired went to hobbycraft only to find they had run out of most things due to a stock take - not even decent quality gutter man in white!!
How do I post pics?
