Stitches to Inches

Use this chart to determine the finished size of a design for various fabric counts. Find the stitch count of the fabric on the top line. Find the number of stitches for the design at the right. The stitched size is the intersection. Remember that this chart only gives the finished size of the design. You will need a larger piece of fabric to stitch on.

DMC floss color chart

This will give you a color picture of the DMC floss colors arranged in color families (not by color number). The picture comes from a DMC thread color book. Although not exact, the colors are fairly accurate. Remember that the colors you will see depend greatly on the quality and calibration of your computer screen. The picture does not include the 27 new colors added early 2002.

This color chart is handy if you want to change colors in a chart. For example, say you want to change part of a design from red to blue. The red in the design has shadowing (red with 2 shades of darker red to create the shadow or texture). An easy way to convert to blues would be to pick all the shades of blue from the same family.
