Thanks Terry for all your hard work in getting the floss and kit info together!!
Model on 28 ct antique white Monaco from Charles Craft, Inc -- 166H x 210W

Here is some information that Terry forwarded to me concerning the Tradewinds kit. Evidently the kit isn't clear as to which thread is which. Terry used the DMC floss card to match each thread and then notate which card/hank it was in. Thanks Terry!! (This is in her words as she sent it to me, I only reformatted the information to fit the web page):

Okay, here is the floss info needed for Tradewinds:  The floss in the kit is 36" long. I will be listed how many strands are in my kit for each color. In my kit, I received 2 cards with the floss already separated and numbered as well as 13 different colors, from the cards, in 2 hanks. I don't know which is hank 1 or hank 2, but hopefully with the colors listed below you should be able to tell a little easier. Some kits do not put them on the cards which is why I am listing the number of strands needed for each color. Hopefully, this will make someone's work a little easier in separating. So, here goes: (if nothing is listed after the number then it is only 1 strand provided)
