I did "Your Cheatin' Heart" today that would have made Hank Williams proud. Underway just now is a red and white Hunter's Star quilt for a Wounded Warrior. The quilt had to be set aside for a couple of weeks because there just was no solution to what color thread for quilting. White thread on the red would detract too much. Red thread on the white just wasn't good either. We decided that the best would be red on red and white on white. Sure. That would only take 496 thread changes. So. I have been sneaking and tippy-toeing from place to place with red on the red and white on the white. That has gone really well except there was one place where I was crossing colors/points and the white stitch on the red point glared at me. I took a red archival (and all that) pen and colored the thread so it disappeared. How cool is that? Polly
