More polyester embroidery thread options

Only the reference-listed Brother colour pairings are shown in the table. We are building the Sakura and Richword colour comparisons separately, using their own shade references.

What if my Madeira number is not listed?

Ask Fabric Mouse for colour-matching help and include the full thread range and colour number. A number from Madeira Classic rayon is a different reference from a number in the Polyneon polyester range.

Are these exact colour matches?

They are colour alternatives from a conversion reference. Shade, sheen and screen appearance can vary; compare a thread sample when the colour match is critical.
