Now here’s a thread palette that makes you feel the late summer heat. DMC Coloris #4511 is again gorgeous, and the coloration of it allows lots of interesting combinations. The bright yellows will stand out against the reds and greens, with the dark browns on the other end. How pretty would this be to stitch on a hand-dyed fabric of some sort?

For each of these thread scheme, or palettes, , I’ll include both an image showing how it was built (to the left), and a thread color schemes, with actual thread numbers, that you can print out. Feel free to save these cards, because you never know when you’ll need them.

Keep your eye out for more color schemes coming in the Simply Color series!

Have you learned more about color harmonies that I cover? Take a look into them, and let me know what you think!!! You’ll never run out of thread palettes again!!!

What part of color inspires you?

Happy stitchin’!
