DMC Stranded Cotton Shade Card - W100B

I got this for a gift for my friend and she loves it and says it is exactly what she needed and it helps her a lot with identifying colors. It has the real threads on it so comparing colors is easier than if it was ink on a page.

I had seen mixed reviews about whether this was the updated version or if it was the actual threads. It is the updated version and it has the actual threads. If you think you’re saving money buying the $10 one — you aren’t going to be getting the updated or actual thread version!

I always try for one with threads as it is easier to match. My last one was 15 years old and a lot on new has been added.

Priced too highly

If you like picking your own threads for embroidery or you want to color match- you need this. Super useful and now I’m on the hunt for other brands cards. This has the real threads, not just a print.

Very easy to choose floss for projects using this - comparing with other called for threads in cross stitch and embroidery projects. I think this is an excellent investment for anyone who is an avid stitcher

I liked everything about it, I use it for cross stitching.

I have recently been given a large collection of floss and 98% of it is unmarked. Other color cards I have seen have a misleading picture and it makes it very hard to match colors, but the thread samples in these makes it so much easier. It’s also organized by color instead of numerically so it’s easy to find a color that is similar to what you may already have in your collection instead of having to go buy more. My only issue is that I bought this last week and had to pay $20 more than the current price, but it was still worth it because I’m finally getting my colors accurately organized.

I do not remember my book from 07 for $10 (half off) from craft shop being so fragile. I found a counted cross stitch with gorgeous butterflies which my great-niece loves. I decided to finish the task of organizing mine and inherited floss only to find the old floss reference guide missing. My relative pitched my floss book, two 98/99% completed counted cross stitch projects, two framed and mounted needlepoint works of art, and a new, very complex 5x7 kit from inside secure needlework project plastic carton. I suggest all craft persons make CLEAR how their art work is to be given, donated or disposed.

This is exactly what I was looking for. It is perfect for seeing all the colors of embroidery floss and their numbers at a glance. Good and quick service.
