The Deep Marine Colour
Glide 92995 Marine is the deep, navy-influenced teal of the marine environment — darker than standard Teal and less purely blue than Navy, Marine occupies the specific deep blue-green of the marine world where blue and teal blend in the depths. For serious nautical quilts, maritime designs, and deep-water themes, Marine provides the most authentically oceanic deep thread colour.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Marine differ from Navy?
Navy is a pure dark blue; Marine carries a clear teal-green influence that reads as deep seawater rather than uniform cloth. On naval dress-blue fabrics Navy is correct; on ocean-depth batiks and water-themed darks, Marine's green undertone blends more authentically.
Is Marine or Deep Sea the darker choice?
They are close in value with different leans: Deep Sea sits more purely in the dark blue zone while Marine holds the navy-teal blend. For layered deep-water quilting, running Deep Sea in the darkest zones and Marine in the transitional depths creates a subtle, realistic shift.
What palette suits a maritime service tribute quilt?
Marine for the deep water, Admiral for the uniform navy, white for insignia and rope-work motifs, and a gold like Medallion for braid and honours details — all in matching 40wt Glide so multi-colour custom work needs no tension changes.
