At The Machine

• Color changes: 4, 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 33.0 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 150.6 × 190.3 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:

• 472 Ultra Light Avocado
• 780 Ultra Very Dark Topaz
• 444 Dark Lemon
• 3777 Very Dark Terra Cotta

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.
