Fabric & Hooping
At about 83.4 stitches/cm² the fill is moderate: one layer of medium-weight cut-away handles most wovens, while knits want a second layer or a fusible backing. At 78.3 × 121.0 mm reach for a 5×7 in hoop.
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:
- 702 Kelly Green
- 208 Very Dark Lavender
- 321 Red
Stitching Notes
With 3 colors and 2 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
Motifs like this scatter well — single placements on pockets and yokes, or repeated across a quilt block, a set of napkins or a child's blanket. It reads the same at any orientation, so placement is forgiving.
