    Re: Madeira color name

    Mary - I am not sure what you want the color names for because most designs give the color numbers.  I love my Madeira threads and wish I had spent all that wasted money on cheap thread on Madeira instead.  But, I know better now.

    Let us know what projects you are working on so we can see the beauty in them along with you.

    HEY Pat, I know I have much to learn about EM, ETC, but most or all of my designs have a color name. I have 2 Brother machines and I can set them to Madeira thread, but the thread count  for the designs that I tried only went into the 1000 range. The thread pack that I have is in the 4- 6 thousand numbers. I will try again tomorrow and see what I can find. I don't want to ruin a project. nor waste the beautifull thread.

    Thank you for you reply,

    Madeira thread

    If anyone out there has a color chart for Madeira thread rayon with the color numbers in the 4 and 6 thousand numbers, will you please send them to me. you may email them also?  I have a set of the thread and have no idea what color they are. The designs that I have with the Madeira thread use only numbers in the 1000 range.

    Thank you so much.

    Re: Madeira thread

    Mary, you can download a free trial of Embird. It will have the thread charts.  Be careful tho, you may grow to love it and have to buy it.

    Hello Mary, I wrote to Madeira-customer service and they advised me to go to www.dakotacollectibles.com. I checked it out.There is a numerical and alphabetacal list .They don't list the 4000 or 6000 Thread colors. I hope this helps. Terri
