Everyone loves a good collection of threads, but unless you have the whole set of DMC threads you’re going to need a way to keep track of what you have, and haven’t got. That’s why we created this awesome colored spreadsheet of all standard, metallic, variations, variegated, Coloris and Étoile 6 strand DMC threads, so you can keep track.
Just click the link or image and save the spreadsheet. You can access it on your computer, phone, or put it through googledocs!

I was just about to start making my own spreadsheet to track my threads after too many projects checking the same sewing box over and over again – so glad my search for an online thread list to start from instead brought me to this page! You’ve saved me hours of work and made something so much better than I would have come up with – thank you!
I was getting ready to spend $75 on Cosmo thread for a project. I already have tons of DMC thread – somehow got this idea that DMC was not very good thread (not color fast, or a quality thread I would put into a quilt with a lot of hand embroidery). Was having trouble finding all the Cosmo colors I would need and thought maybe I could treat the DMC thread to not bleed as bad. After researching DMC thread – Ha, DMC thread is colorfast, and the quality seems to be there as well. I have decided not spend money on thread I already own. Was looking for current DMC colors when I can across your site. Your information and spread sheets will help me so much. I am so thankful for you sharing your talents!
Amazing Thank you I am going to cheat and use this for my perle cottons as well haha.
The site and etsy listing both say it includes discontinued variations threads, but I’m not seeing them on the inventory list. Am I blind?
Just before their discontinuation DMC called them “variegated” instead, and we’ve marked them on our spreadsheet as such. You can find them in columns BJ to BM.
AHA. So I am just blind. 😛 Now to shift everything around. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this chart!! Now I can find the colors I need
