The colourginger mustardis a deep yellow with shades of brown, more muted than a lemon yellow. It is sold by the piece and bears theGütermann. On one seam, it looks darker and more coppery than on the spool.

Directions for use

• Sew it on corduroy, linen or heavy cotton in earth shades: it matches browns, ochres and moss greens.
• For a visible topstitching on raw denim, go over the line twice: the color stands out and is reminiscent of denim seams.
• Avoid combining it with pure white: the effect is yellowish. On cream or ecru, the contrast remains soft.
• Make the buttonholes of a mustard coat for a discreet nod to a neutral fabric.

Think of wooden or corozo buttons and thick cotton canvas for bags and totes.
