    That looks just great. Actually, you can do what you want because the "quilt police' won't get you. That's what's nice about quilting.

    I would try the green color thread if you have it. Green actually blends ok on dark colors.

    I do like the all over pattern.

    I like the variegated idea... the solid purple looks a little harsh on the white to me.

    I think I would use a light green that wouldn't show up too starkly on the white, would kinda disappear on the green and would be noticeable on the blue. IMHO

    I like the purple thread, the quilt "POPS".
