The Colour of Ripe Grain
Glide 27500 Wheat delivers the warm, golden-cream of ripe wheat — slightly golden, warm, and natural-feeling. On fabrics in the warm golden-cream to light golden-tan range, Wheat integrates as the most naturally grain-like neutral. It is the thread for harvest, country, and natural-palette quilts where the background should evoke warm summer fields.
