Hi Elizabeth,

I don't see an answer to your question, so I'll jump in with an alternative
suggestion. Request color cards from mail-order sources, such as from this
vendor:

https://www.craftsy.com/quilting/ideas/craftsy-thread.

Then you could see the real colors and feel the thread. This thread is 50
wt cotton (assuming that the "no. 40 and 60 you use are the thread weight)
and comes in a nice variety of colors:

For other threads, try Holly Van Sciver. She carries lots of threads in
many more colors for which she also sells color cards:

(Usual disclaimer applies: no affiliation with either source, only a happy
customer!)

Hope this helps.
