    I assume you mean natural colored muslin? I'd always opt for the darker color. Stays clean longer.

    Neither ... a halloween print!

    Although ... we'd have a better idea as to what to suggest if you'd show us what you are making!

    Remember, most of us as quilters come to life when we really SEE something!
