Conversion Notes
Sullivans 45076 is rated close. The light coral value means coverage is the primary variable to monitor — pale threads on lighter fabrics can appear thin, shifting the perceived color toward the fabric tone and losing the warm coral quality. Testing a swatch before large areas ensures you'll get the warm coral character rather than a washed-out approximation. Sullivans' slight sheen at this light value can read as marginally brighter than the DMC, which in highlight positions may be an advantage but in broader fills is worth checking against your specific fabric.

How We Validate This Match
This Sullivans page is meant to help you shortlist a replacement quickly, then verify the physical skein before you mix brands in the same stitched area.

Watch for

- ! Brand sheen, strand thickness, and project lighting can make DMC 352 and Sullivans 45076 look further apart than the stored match rating suggests.
- ! If the design depends on smooth gradients or skin-tone transitions, compare this swap against the neighboring DMC shades before you substitute a large block.
Before you commit
- Compare DMC 352 and Sullivans 45076: lay the physical skeins together in daylight before you mix brands in the same stitched area.
- Test on your project fabric: stitch a small sample so fabric color and stitch density reveal whether the match still holds at full coverage.
- Keep a fallback ready: if the swap feels off, use the linked related DMC shades or another brand conversion instead of forcing the closest stored match.
