Mr Evans Name Lettering

About This Design

This name text design stitches out at 240.9 × 117.0 mm (9.5 × 4.6 in) and uses 6 thread colors across 6 color changes. Total count is 32,980 stitches at a density of about 117.0 stitches/cm².

At The Machine

• Estimated stitch-out time: ~55 minutes at 600 spm
• Color changes: 6, automatic trims: 3
• 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 117.0 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 240.9 × 117.0 mm plan on 6×10 in or larger, and mark your centre lines before hooping.

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:

• 931 Medium Antique Blue
• 899 Medium Rose
• 996 Medium Electric Blue
• 321 Red
• 3013 Light Khaki Green
• 415 Pearl 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

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.
