Variegated thread
I love these colorful variegated threads and to see how the colors would show up I made a sampler with some of my fancy stiches I have on my sewing machine: so I can see how the colors will be when using these yarns!

Good idea to use it for the fancy stitches. I bought some King Tutt variegated thread at a Stitch & Knot show last year and they had a panel of the threads but had only used a meandering quilt stitch. It think what you've dint shows the treads really well x

That's a great idea! I should really do that as I'm always shocked by how they come out when doing a satin stitch or something. Also would probably make me use those lovely decorative stitches if I could see how they will come out!

That's a great idea, since different brands and lines of variegated thread vary on the intervals between colors and this will give you an idea of how they will look. Also, write down what brand and line (i.e. Superior, King Tut) to identify for future use.
