DMC 124 to Anchor: Thread Conversion

Anchor 977 is a close match as a solid medium blue, capturing the general color of DMC 124's midtone. For individual forget-me-not blooms at 14-count or higher, the solid substitute works well — each tiny flower is too small for the variegation to develop fully anyway. For larger clusters and full garden backgrounds where the petal-to-petal variation creates the naturalistic impression, the solid reads as more uniform than intended. Test your first cluster and compare it to a photo reference of real forget-me-nots before proceeding.
