Frequently Asked Questions
- What gap does Light Grey fill?
- The one between the White jar and CG3 — on a silver or pale-grey back, white bobbin reads stark and CG3 reads visible. Light Grey sits exactly in the sliver both miss.
- Why do some quilters run it on white Grunge backs?
- The texture — on white Grunge's tonal surface a light grey join reads softer and more organic than bright white, a subtle preference some studios standardize on.
- Light Grey and CG3 together?
- The two-jar grey system — Light Grey for pale backs, CG3 for mediums. Between them the grey spectrum is covered without a mismatch anywhere.
- Where does it mismatch?
- Warm neutrals — its cool cast fights natural muslin and cream backs; those want Linen or Cream jars instead.
- Matched with Light Grey Glide on top?
- Exact spool match — for silver-grey quilts, one continuous pale grey through the sandwich.
