At The Machine

• Color changes: 6, automatic trims: 7
• 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 31.0 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 147.9 × 119.2 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:

• 3746 Dark Blue Violet
• 415 Pearl Gray
• 900 Dark Burnt Orange
• 561 Very Dark Jade
• 208 Very Dark Lavender
• 317 Pewter Gray

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

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.
