What it means

A fill region is too small to justify a fill strategy cleanly.

Why it matters

Tiny fills bunch thread and often sew better as simpler decorative or running structures.

Common triggers

  • small icon interiors
  • narrow pockets of color
  • scaled-down filled regions

Typical fixes

  • convert to decoration or running stitch
  • merge with neighboring region
  • scale up

Notes

  • This is a geometry-to-stitch-strategy conversion candidate.
