At The Machine

• Estimated stitch-out time: ~8 minutes at 600 spm
• Color changes: 6
• 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 250.2 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 41.2 × 49.1 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:

• 741 Medium Tangerine

• 798 Dark Delft Blue
• 3607 Light Plum
• 415 Pearl Gray
• 899 Medium Rose
• 743 Medium Yellow

Stitching Notes

7 colors across 6 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.
