Frequently Asked Questions
How does Sunshine differ from Bright Yellow?
Bright Yellow is the cooler, purer primary yellow, while Sunshine carries distinct warmth — the difference between a paint-chip yellow and actual sunlight. On warm summer fabrics and golden-tinged yellows Sunshine blends more naturally; on true primary-yellow prints, Bright Yellow is the closer match.
Is Sunshine or Canary the better choice for a children's quilt?
Both work beautifully; the deciding factor is fabric temperature. Canary reads slightly cleaner and cooler, Sunshine warmer and cozier. For playful primary-colour novelty prints, Canary integrates well; for warm, cheerful storybook palettes, Sunshine is the friendlier match.
Will Sunshine hold up on a heavily washed everyday quilt?
Yes — like the rest of the Glide line, Sunshine is colourfast trilobal polyester that survives frequent laundering without fading, making it a reliable choice for children's quilts and everyday throws that see the washing machine weekly.
