Does anyone know where there is a chart that matches
bead colors to floss colors?

The book _Fiber Fantasy_ ( a WONDERFUL reference), page 189 lists 4
different kinds of beads and matches them to DMC floss.

I'm not sure if you're talking about Mill Hill beads or not, but to my
knowledge there is no official chart. (Does anyone know if there an
unofficial one on Kathy Dyer's page?)

I spoke to the owner of Mill Hill a couple of months ago and she said
that she wouldn't be doing any kinds of charts because the dye lots for
the beads were inconsistent.

here is the Mill Hill to Miyuki beads conversion chart.
these are the same Japanese 11s at a fraction of the cost of Mill Hill.

Here is the DMC thread colors to Miyuki delica beads chart:

Print them out from your browser and you can always substitute beads
with success.

Happy beading and cross stitch

Is this the beads "they" are dying? You'd think they'd have more quality
control! Wouldn't you?
Bahhhhaaaaaaaa!

ROFLMAO - Quality Control!!!!! As if dye lots were *only* a matter of quality
control.

Sorry - couldn't resist.....
