About This Design

This text logo design stitches out at 435.3 × 167.3 mm (17.1 × 6.6 in) and uses 6 thread colors across 6 color changes. Total count is 24,014 stitches at a density of about 33.0 stitches/cm².

At The Machine

• Estimated stitch-out time: ~40 minutes at 600 spm
• Color changes: 6, automatic trims: 13
• Follow the color sequence table above — thread numbers refer to the chart programmed in the file; match them to your brand by color.

Fabric & Hooping

At about 33.0 stitches/cm² this is an open, low-density fill, so it sits happily on quilting cotton, linen or lightweight shirting with a single layer of tear-away behind it. At 435.3 × 167.3 mm this needs a large-format hoop, or splitting across several hoopings with alignment marks — check it against your machine's maximum field first.

Thread Colors in This Design

DST files store stitch data but no thread information, so the colors below are our suggested DMC match. Swap in whatever you have in a similar shade:

• 434 Light Brown
• 317 Pewter Gray
• 3705 Dark Melon
• 900 Dark Burnt Orange
• 444 Dark Lemon
• 909 Very Dark Emerald

Stitching Notes

With 6 colors and 6 changes you can pre-wind the whole set before you start and never leave the machine. DST stores stitch data only, which is why the color list is a suggestion rather than the digitizer's original choice.

What to Make With It

Lettering at this size suits shirt cuffs and collars, pockets, tote panels and towel borders — anywhere a name or initial needs to sit cleanly on a flat surface. Keep the backing firm so the strokes hold their shape.
