Fabric & Hooping
At about 94.4 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 105.5 × 58.6 mm reach for a 5×7 in hoop.
Thread Colors in This Design

- 909 Very Dark Emerald
- 958 Dark Sea Green
- 798 Dark Delft Blue
- 3746 Dark Blue Violet
Stitching Notes
With 5 colors and 4 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.
