Frequently Asked Questions
What's the logic of a five-colour value ladder?
Each tube steps one colour family from light to deep, so any fabric in that family finds a within-one-step match — and shaded quilting (light centres, deep borders) comes from one tube. It's a curated answer to the matching problem, not five random spools.
Which tube should a studio start with?
Neutral Undertones, without question — five neutrals cover the majority of everyday quilting where the thread should support rather than star. Colour-family tubes follow based on what the studio's typical work leans toward.
How far does a 400M spool go?
At 60wt, a long way — fine thread yields far more stitching per metre than 40–50wt. A 400M spool comfortably handles a lap-quilt's worth of moderate custom work; production edge-to-edge across bed quilts is where the 2500yd cones take over.
