Stitching Notes
14 colors across 13 changes makes this a real thread-management job: lay the spools out in sequence order first and keep the color chart to hand. Being a PES file, the thread assignments come embedded, so most machines will display the color list for you.
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.
