Frequently Asked Questions
Why is blue the deepest bench in the range?
Blue is the most common backing colour after neutrals — navy wide-backs, baby blues, and aqua minkys all move in volume — so the nine-step blue bench means a within-one-value match for essentially any blue back that arrives.
Which blues cover the most quilts?
609 Dark Blue (navy wide-backs), 634 Baby Blue (baby quilts), and 635 Medium Blue (the general middle). Add 611 Turquoise if coastal and batik work is a steady part of the queue.
What are the periwinkles for?
The blue-purple bridge — lavender-blue backings that make both a true blue and a true purple bobbin fleck. 608 and 632 sit exactly on that boundary at two values.
