At The Machine

• Color changes: 8, automatic trims: 10
• 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 60.8 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 114.2 × 135.3 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:

• 820 Very Dark Royal Blue
• 741 Medium Tangerine

• 776 Medium Pink
• 3607 Light Plum
• 702 Kelly Green
• 321 Red
• 931 Medium Antique Blue

Stitching Notes

8 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

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.
