Fabric & Hooping
At about 246.4 stitches/cm² this is a dense fill that pulls hard on the fabric. Back it with firm cut-away, add a water-soluble topping on towelling or fleece, and pick a stable woven over anything stretchy. At 70.3 × 70.6 mm a 4×4 in hoop is plenty.
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:
- 899 Medium Rose
- 3705 Dark Melon
- 815 Medium Garnet
- 321 Red
- 310 Black
- 317 Pewter Gray
- 415 Pearl Gray
- 645 Very Dark Beaver Gray
- 738 Very Light Tan
Stitching Notes
9 colors across 8 changes makes this a real thread-management job: lay the spools out in sequence order first and keep the color chart to hand. 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.
