Hi all,
A coworker's friend died recently and he had a number of projects in
progress. My coworker told the family he'd finish them. One of the
projects was a surface embroidery baby quilt, I think from Bucilla. In
the chart there's a pale yellow with the number 6098. I can't find
this on my conversion charts of DMC/Anchor/JP Coats. Anyone got any
ideas what it might be? Or a DMC equivalent?
On a side note, the family just dumped all of his floss, some on
slotted cardboard strips, into a couple of big bags and gave them to my
coworker....what a mess trying to separate and sort them!!! There have
to be at *least* 300 skeins there.
TIA.
Joan

According to the Plaid website the DMC equivalent for 6098 is DMC 3770 but
that looks more like a very pale tan rather than yellow to me.

The lightest DMC yellow on my color chart is 3078 but it's an older chart
and may not have all the newest colors on it. He might want to take the
skein to a store and compare it directly to find the closest match.
Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

That was *very* helpful, Jeri! I printed up the conversion list for
him in case he has any more problems. Thanks!

Joan, don't the Dimensions colors come in the 6000s?? It seems to ring a
bell. Sorry I haven't got time to research it right now, the turkey
carcase soup is coming to the boil!!
