Fabric & Hooping
At about 56.4 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 96.0 × 76.1 mm reach for a 5×7 in hoop.

Stitching Notes
With 6 colors and 5 changes you can pre-wind the whole set before you start and never leave the machine. Being a PES file, the thread assignments come embedded, so most machines will display the color list for you.
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.
