Nickel sits at the intersection of grey and green — it reads as a cool, slightly green-tinted grey or a very muted, greyed-out sage. It’s a sophisticated, unusual neutral that works beautifully on quilts combining cool grey and sage-green fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15497 Nickel — a cool grey-green, like aged nickel metal\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\u003eHow does Nickel differ from Celery (60580) and the warm greys?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNickel (15497) is cooler than Celery — Celery has a warmer, more golden-green quality. Nickel reads as a metallic grey-green, like tarnished nickel. It’s neither clearly grey nor clearly green, sitting elegantly between the two families.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat quilts does Nickel complement?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNickel works beautifully on contemporary quilts that blend grey and green fabrics, on quilts featuring sage, eucalyptus, or grey-green tones, and on any project where a sophisticated, slightly unusual neutral adds an unexpected element.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCan Nickel function as a near-neutral thread?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes — on quilts with cool grey, sage, and muted green-grey backgrounds, Nickel blends so naturally it functions almost as a neutral. It’s particularly useful for studios that quilt a lot of contemporary quilts with mixed cool-grey and green palettes.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat bobbin pairs best with Nickel?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eA medium grey or light sage Magna-Glide bobbin provides the closest match. On neutral backings, grey or cream bobbins also work.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eIs Nickel a good choice for nature-themed quilts?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes — the aged metallic quality of Nickel reads as organic and natural, making it excellent for stone, moss, lichen, and weathered-nature themed quilt designs.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/battingcompany.com\/collections\/15497-nickel-glide-polyester-thread-5500-yards-king-spool.oembed","provider":"The Batting Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
