The far away waters were a serene blue and I matched thread to it, while the closer waters have a blue green tint thus I transitioned to that color scheme as I got closer to the edge of the water. Same color/value threads sink into the background and pretty much disappear.
The sand just needed to be secured in a nondescript pattern different than the water. I used a curvy back and forth fill pattern that went fast! A medium to light yellow and almost cream variegated gave it a little interest. Variations often help an otherwise nothingness area (I didn't want to call the sand boring.)
Now to finish the border and bind.
