How to use the DMC to Madeira chart
27 % of DMC colors land under ΔE 3 in Madeira, the range where a swap is hard to spot at arm's length, and 2 (<1 %) sit at ΔE 10 or more, where Madeira simply has no comparable shade. Madeira offers 369 colors against DMC's 489, so some merging is unavoidable.
The chart is not symmetric. Going DMC → Madeira → DMC, 196 of 489 colors come back to themselves; the other 293 land on a neighbor. Use the Madeira to DMC chart when your pattern is keyed in Madeira.
Madeira 1804 Pearl Gray Very Light is the busiest target: it stands in for 10 different DMC colors (DMC 02, DMC 23, DMC 24 and DMC 25 and more). A pattern converted wholesale can merge shades that were distinct, so check areas where those colors meet.
