For piecing I always use the same thread top and bobbin. And it doesn't have to match, just blend in like grays, creams, or white. Unless you are using a black in a lot of your quilt, then you'd want to use the dark gray or black.

Ditto on "Bottom Line" thread in bobbin. I love it; haven't used anything else since I found it (unless doing bobbin work). I have also found that Aurafil (sp?) thread makes less lint than any other brand I've used in the top. Good luck with your quilting ... an exciting new adventure!
