I am making two bags for host gifts. I have all ready topped stitched one of the two panels for the first bag in black thread. (photos attached) So I will finish that bag in black. The black thread shows on the black fabric better in the photo then in person because of the flash. I am wondering if gray thread would look better because it would show up better on the black fabric.
So here are the questions in my mind I'm trying to answer:
Would gray thread look better?
Would gray thread look to soft?
Should I just do the second bag with black thread and not worry about loosing the pattern of the black thread on the black fabric?

I'm afraid a white would be lost on the white fabric as the black is lost on the black fabric. That is why I am playing with the idea of gray. It would show on all of the fabrics. I not sure if gray would be to soft. I have light gray thread. I guess a dark gray might be better.
Yes, the stitch is an embellishment. So, I want it to show.
The black is okay, but.... Of course it might just be me looking at it to long. :D
