Medium Grey sits squarely between light and dark — not too subtle to disappear on medium fabrics, not so dark it reads as charcoal. It’s an exceptionally versatile blending thread for the wide range of grey and mixed-tone modern quilts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10424 Medium Grey — a balanced, clean medium grey with no strong warm or cool bias\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40wt trilobal polyester — industry standard for longarm quilting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYardage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5,500 yards on a king-size spool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFiber:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% trilobal polyester — high sheen, low lint, excellent strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e All longarm machines and most domestic sewing machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhere does Medium Grey fit in the Glide grey spectrum?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMedium Grey (10424) is lighter than German Granite (10401) and Smoke (15315), and darker than Cool Grey 3 (10CG3) and Light Grey (17543). It’s a balanced mid-tone — the clearest “grey” in the range without leaning warm or cool.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eIs Medium Grey a good default for modern quilts?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes — for studios that quilt a lot of modern quilts with grey content, Medium Grey works across most mid-tone grey and mixed-palette quilt backings. It’s particularly useful when the backing has a clearly medium grey tone where lighter greys would appear too faint and darker ones too prominent.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat is the difference between Medium Grey and Cool Grey 3?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eCool Grey 3 (10CG3) is slightly lighter and has a more pronounced cool, blue-grey quality. Medium Grey (10424) is deeper and more neutral. Both are excellent production greys; the choice depends on the specific backing fabric tone.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat bobbin thread pairs best with Medium Grey?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eA medium grey Magna-Glide bobbin (such as Light Grey Classic Case) provides a close match. On neutral backings, cream or white bobbins also work without visible contrast issues.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCan Medium Grey be used for wholecloth quilting?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes — Medium Grey on a medium grey wholecloth creates a subtle tonal effect where the Glide sheen adds dimension without strong color contrast.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/lindas.com\/collections\/10424-medium-grey-glide-polyester-thread-5500-yards-king-spool.oembed","provider":"Linda's Electric Quilters ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
