Fabric & Hooping
At about 137.3 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 45.9 × 35.9 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:
- 702 Kelly Green
- 776 Medium Pink
- 738 Very Light Tan
- 820 Very Dark Royal Blue
- 704 Bright Chartreuse
- 899 Medium Rose
- 434 Light Brown
- 798 Dark Delft Blue
Stitching Notes
8 colors across 7 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
A picture-style design wants a flat, stable surface where it can be seen whole: a framed hoop piece, a quilt centre, a cushion front or the back of a jacket. Avoid stretchy garments, which distort the shape.
