Presumably every color. There is no record of lack of color in the Middle Ages. In fact, art from that time period is quite colorful. Research it.
Virtually all colours could be made. Browns, Blues, Reds, Greens and Yellows were all common. the hardest colour to make permanant was black, so it was often a colour worn by the richest people, as a sign of wealth. Most dyes were made from natural materials, for instance plants, or mosses, and were boiled or ground up to create the colours.
To make a dye permanat, and not wash out, it had to be chemically "fixed" in the fabric. Rather unpleasantly, the method used to do this in antquity through to the early 19th century was stale urine...
(There are stories from the highlands of Scotland from the 17th century, that it was considered bad manners, on visiting a farmer's croft, not to take a pee in the barrel where urine was collected for dying of fabric. )

How did people in the Middle Ages make stained glass?
AnswerThey painted it. AnswerThe did paint it, to get details, but there was a lot more to it than that. Stained glass is made by taking pieces of colored glass and setting out to the shape of a picture. The glass is held in place by strips of lead that are soldered together, forming a dark linear element in the picture. The glass could be painted or not. It usually was painted to get such details as eyes, noses and mouths into the picture. It could also be stained to change the color. If it was painted or stained, it was subsequently fired. For example, a piece of glass could be yellowed by putting a silver containing paste on it before firing.

We do not know who invented stained glass, but it was probably invented in western Europe in the Early Middle Ages. Colored glass had been used earlier for various purposes, and colored designs made of substances other than glass had been used in window areas, but we have no record or evidence of stained glass windows.
