I decided to feather the black-surrounded crazy-pieced blocks, but an not that thrilled with how they turned out - the thread is too obvious on the bright blocks.
Then I did a loop in the blue border.
And a wavy line in the white block borders.
Now I'm quilting the centres of the white-surrounded blocks. I still need to work out what to do with the blue in these blocks - and the two white borders. And if I'd got on with the job tonight, it would be done - but it's not!

I don't think your thread choices are unappealing to the eye. At least in photograph, they appear to blend well. Whay I question is using a traditional feather motif on a very non-traditional crazy-pieced block. The swirls seem to be a much better design fit to me. It's always a struggle to select the perfect design. I, too, second guess design choices far too often. I'm sure when it is done, you'll feel differently.
You are gettng there Emma - if you are not happy with you colour thread choices..what would you have used instead? You must have been up late with this one?
