The Dragon Scale Blue-Green
Glide 63295 Dragon is the deep, vivid blue-green of dragon scales — bold, powerful, and mythologically significant. Deeper and more vivid than standard teal, with the specific dark power of the mythical creature. For fantasy quilts, dramatic art pieces, and designs where colour should feel as powerful and legendary as a dragon. It pairs naturally with Glide Mystical for the complete fantasy blue-green family, while Glide Persian and Glide Teal cover the classic jewel and balanced blue-green positions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Glide Dragon and Mystical?
Both live in the fantasy blue-green family, but Dragon is deeper and more powerful while Mystical is brighter and more luminous. On dark dragon-scale and gothic fantasy fabrics, Dragon blends; on vivid magical and mermaid fabrics, Mystical wins. Many fantasy quilts use both — Dragon in the shadows, Mystical in the highlights.
Is Dragon a good match for teal fabrics?
Only the deepest, most saturated ones. Standard teal fabrics are better served by Teal itself; Dragon steps in when the fabric pushes darker and bolder than classic teal — peacock-dark blue-greens, deep lagoon shadows, and saturated jewel prints.
What quilting designs show Dragon at its best?
Scale and clamshell fills are the obvious showstopper — quilted scales in Dragon on matching fabric create literal dragon-hide texture. It also excels in dramatic feathers and flame motifs on fantasy panels, where the trilobal sheen makes deep blue-green shimmer like real scales.
