Glide 40 wt Thread 5000 m King Cone – 20615 Fawn

Glide 40 wt trilobal polyester quilting thread in 20615 Fawn is a warm colour with straw yellow with muted green undertones. A muted straw-toned neutral with clear yellow and subtle green undertones. It sits between the golden creams and Khaki rather than with pinks, taupes or conventional beige. It is especially useful for botanical prints, muted yellow-greens, vintage palettes, wheat and straw tones, soft camouflage and nature-inspired quilts. The 5000 m King Cone is designed for longarmers, professional quilters and frequent machine quilters who need smooth, consistent stitching with minimal lint.

Lori's Recommendation

Compare Fawn with Wheat when deciding whether the fabric needs more green, and with Khaki when it needs more depth. Whisper and Celery help reveal its yellow-green undertone. Do not treat Shell as a direct alternative. I frequently reach for Fawn when a quilt falls between soft yellows and warm neutrals. If your fabrics sit between Whisper Yellow and Linen, Fawn often becomes the colour that quietly disappears into the quilt. It is especially useful as a bridge between neighbouring colour families. It is a favourite for soft baby and nursery palettes.
