Hi Emma,
Is there any easy way to convert one brand of thread to another? I think I have been on every web site that has a conversion chart and none of them do what I want. I want to convert the brand they use in their design to Isacord, which is the brand that I use and have the most of. I hope you can help. I will wait to hear from you.

There is one easy way, but you have to have EXPLORATIONS Embroidery Software to do it. If you have Explorations, simply drag your design into the workspace of a project. Go to the Threads Mode and make sure you only have "Isacord" selected as your brand of thread. Select your design, click on Tools, click on Color Wheel, then click on OK. When you view the threads again, they will be converted to Isacord numbers. It's almost worth the $399 for this software program just for that feature, but it has so very much more! Check out all the features by clicking this link: www.embroideryonline.com/explorations www.embroideryonline.com/explorations.
By the way, here are some tips for those of you who wanted to print the thread chart from OESD's website. Click this link: http://www.embroideryonline.com/products/IsaCord.aspx. Check the drop down arrow and change to "View 30 at a time". Then change your printer's setting to landscrape before printing.
Happy "Em"broidering,
