I surfed the web until I found a listing of the numbers
for the DMC Flower
Threads. I found it in Creative Hand Shoppe under the
listing of supplies
that you could buy from them. They indicated that the
last date it was
updated was 5/3/96. I emailed the listing to myself but
couldn't figure out how to send it to the
newsgroup......so I typed it all out for you.

Hope this help....

Discontinued in 2003, and I still have a complete
collection. Excellent chart, but please note: What you
have as very light tan 2736 is actually 2738 You omit 2595
Teal (there were 180 colours not 179)

I too have a complete set and was very disappointed when
they were discontinued. They were a bit tricky to get the
hang of at first, but they worked up beautifully.

I still display a Sudbury box with a design stitched in
the flower thread. I've also done a matching pillowtop,
but never got around to actually making it into a pillow.

One day....

Nyssa, who has so many "one day" projects she probably won't
need to buy much in the way of materials for a decade or two
