Turn any photo into a printable cross-stitch pattern, design your own motifs, and keep track of every stitch, all on your phone or tablet.

PHOTO TO PATTERN

• Pick a photo from your gallery or camera and crop it

• Choose the size in stitches and the number of colours

• Colours are matched to 450+ DMC thread numbers

• Preview in colour, black-and-white symbols, or a realistic "stitched" look

• Leave the background unstitched with one tap

DESIGN YOUR OWN

• Select, copy, flip and move parts of your design
