Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Glide Lime, Kiwi, and Chartreuse?
All three are bright greens, but they lean differently: Lime is the clean vivid lime at the centre of the category, Kiwi carries a slightly softer fruit-green cast, and Chartreuse shifts distinctly toward yellow-green. Match your fabric's lean — pure vivid lime prints want Lime; yellow-influenced brights want Chartreuse.
Is Lime a good choice for children's quilts?
Excellent — vivid lime is a staple of children's and novelty fabric lines, and Lime blends into those bright backgrounds while adding Glide's signature sheen. It also stands up beautifully as a contrast thread on navy, purple, and black for playful high-energy designs.
Will vivid lime thread hold its colour through washing?
Yes. Glide's trilobal polyester is colourfast and fade-resistant, so Lime keeps its vividness through repeated home laundering — an important consideration for children's quilts that see heavy use and frequent washing.
