The Marigold Yellow-Orange
Glide 80130 Marigold is the specific warm, vivid orange-yellow of marigold flowers — one of the most useful flower colours in quilting because marigold fabrics are so pervasive in autumn and garden collections. More orange than yellow, but brighter and more yellow-warm than Safety Orange or Halloween, Marigold fills the specific flower-orange position that no other thread covers as precisely.
