New!  The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

New!  We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn!  If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you.  This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic!  (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)

New!  The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

Welcome to Stitchboard!  Feel free to sit and stay awhile.  Check out our new Premier features.  In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request!  We have many more features planned, too!  Laughing

Hi, my name is Ann. I am 48 yrs old and enjoy cross-stitch. For years I've been trying to figure out how to make a photo into a cross-stitch pattern. I'm not very good at photo changing (?) and I do not own a PC. I do have an android tablet & would like to know if it's possible to do it on that. I know that I should be reading other posts on this, but I'm having difficulty staying focused. My best friend, of 12 years, Brandy, was euthanized on Monday, August 8, 2016. Brandy is/was a Rottweiler & is
extremely special to me. I have a great photo of her when she was in her prime that I would like to make into a cross-stitch pattern. If anyone knows how to do this in the easiest way possible I would be very grateful. Thanks for your time.


You can actually change what you want for now.  Just before I do the final move over to the new hardware I'll turn off the ability to post to the Community and Circles and also disable new member registrations.

I've finished most of the testing that I can do before the move so Monday I'll bring the new configuration live.

I'm going to do it so everyone can keep reading Community and Circles messages and those who use the freePatternWizard can keep using it during the move.

There's going to be a delay between the time I turn on the new hardware and when people can actually see it.  Just before I do the move, I'll place a red banner at the top of the pages to let you know you're still seeing the old setup and cannot post or register.

Then when your ISP updates their database, you'll immediately see the new hardware and the red banner will be gone.  Then you can post again and new member registration will again be available.

The delay between when you see the old and new hardware is strictly up to your ISP's schedule and could be between 5 minutes and 48 hours.

Line,

I love your floating clock even more up close!  Kiss  I've looked at our hardware store, and they don't sell anything close, but there are a lot of really nice choices at Amazon.  Kiss  And the prices aren't terribly high.  Smile  LOL, though the one comment from a manufacturer was something like, "Have fun  with the numbers."  Um, does that mean exchanging the 9 for a 3 or something?  Ha ha, "It's 3:00...no, wait...it's 9:00...it's in the 9 space, but that's the number 3!"  Laughing  No, I think instead of having "fun" with the numbers, I'll keep them in their traditional spots.  Wink

Awww, thanks...well, the porch dining room is a very loooong term plan, sigh, because there are so many other things to do first, such as getting central air conditioning in here and redoing wiring...there's no end to the fixes, so the decorating things will have to wait.  But I do look forward to then, to planning out that front room and how pretty it will look with windows all around and perhaps curtains that go all around the room for nighttime privacy.  What I also want to do is not just turn it into a front porch room, but a glassed in room that wraps a tiny bit around the side of the house (it can't go terribly far, as there isn't much of a yard).  I saw one like it and have loved the idea ever since!  Kiss

LOL, oh, I love the open look, too!  But remember...bathroom.  Yuck.  That's the reason the entranceway is unusable as a dining room, otherwise, it would be the perfect size.  But if there's a front porch dining room that's got a door keeping it closed off from the entranceway, you can still be near the bathroom, but the bathroom won't be right on top of the dining room room.  Smile

Hee hee, mine would buy a cable knitting needle if he couldn't find the right kind of crochet hook, too.  Especially if store personnel were busy and he didn't want to ask.

Completely agree with you about books.  It's hard to mistake a different title for a specific one.  Laughing  LOL, even for a man with no interest in the subject.  Wink

Line,

Not only did this turn out beautifully Kiss, I see you do as I like to...you make the blankets super large, so they'll be of use for a long time!  Kiss

Great job!  Kiss

How is your move going...have you packed a lot so far?  July isn't terribly far away now, woo hoo!  Kiss

Samantha,

Welcome!  Smile

The artwork option is not available at this time.  That's why it won't work with any browser/computer...you're not doing anything wrong!  Smile
