I'm going to stitch this wonderful sampler. Its a great piece not just for Halloween. |
Here's my fabric and threads. The threads on the left I had no problem with. Nightmare, Dried Blood, and Sarcophagus were pretty easy to tell. |
These were the ones I can't figure out. They are: Coffin Lid, Witch's Wort, Swamp Water, Zombie Flesh and Burial Ground yet they all look so much alike. |

You gotta be kidding me!? They didn't label those for you? Sorry, I'm no help at all but geesh, that's irritating.
If I remember correctly from when I stitched this, there were descriptions of the colors on the chart ~ I used those descriptions to help figure out which was which.
What the! I would contact the supplier you might have just got a dud batch that missed getting labeled.
Hi Patti,
If you want to shoot me your email I will take a picture of my grouping and send to you so you can get a real close up. I am having a hard time seeing yours. I remember when I got my thread packet that I had to e-mail the company to figure one of them out. E-mail me if you are interested in a picture that you can zoom in and out.

Been studying my threads with yours and this is what I come up with.
Going left to right:
1. Zombie Flesh
2. Witch's Wort
3. Swampwater
4. Coffin Lid
5. Burial Ground
1 and 2 are almost identical. The Witch's Wort is a just a little darker.
The Swampwater has a grayish/dk green tone with the brown.
The lightest more golden is the coffin lid.
#5 I am positive is Burial Ground.
Hope this helps.
Good luck! Nancy

I have this kitted up
I have what nancy has also
I thought I would look and give you what I have, but nothing is marked, so it is kinda hard to describe. Maybe if you have the colors in your stash, you can compare.
Good luck!!
I wouldn't do well with that either! Those colors are definitely so similar. I have that sampler too but my old eyes might not cooperate by the time I get around to it!
