Fabric & Hooping
At about 151.4 stitches/cm² this is a dense fill that pulls hard on the fabric. Back it with firm cut-away, add a water-soluble topping on towelling or fleece, and pick a stable woven over anything stretchy. At 95.9 × 48.7 mm reach for a 5×7 in hoop.

11 colors across 10 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.
