All Brother charts →About the Brother Embroidery range
With 61 colors, Brother Embroidery leans toward yellows and blues, with a smaller set of greens and 7 neutral shades for lettering and outlines. 010 Cream Brown is the lightest color, 900 Black the darkest, and 205 Yellow (#ffff00) the most vivid. Compared with Isacord 40, 75% of the line matches closely, and 62% matches Madeira Polyneon 40. That is enough to run most designs written for those brands with only minor changes. Being polyester, it keeps its color through washing and bleach; a match taken from a rayon brand will read slightly flatter in the stitch-out.
