site news and information

Hi, All

First, for anyone having any problems bringing up the freePatternWizard pattern creation software by using the top drop-down menu, feel free to Take This Link


Our showcase has been updated. If you've previously uploaded a showcase in the past, please check to see if it's been posted; meanwhile, if you want to submit one (or another one, if you've already posted before), feel free to do so!


Also note we now have an additional (optional) assembly page for the freePatternWizard. This is for larger pieces that have multiple pages. Much smaller patterns won't need this.


To freePatternWizard paid Premium subscribers having problems logging in:

If you're logged into your Stitchboard account (shows "Hi, name" in the upper right corner of each page), you can ignore the rest of this message.

If you're not logged into your Stitchboard account and you are a freePatternWizard paid Premium subscriber, please take this link one time to verify your subscription(s). It will also ask you to change your password. Again, you only need to do this once.

If you are not a paid Premium subscriber and are having problems logging in, try logging into the Stitchboard website. If you see an "Invalid login username or password" message, you may need to re-register at this link or by clicking the "Register" link at the top of the page. If you try re-registering and get a "duplicate email address" message, you'll need to go through the "password change" function by using this link.

Lschank,
Welcome! Smile
Please let me know if I'm misunderstanding your question. Lol, I'm known to be a bit dense. Your original image should contain the background color and then, inside the logo, the color you want as that particular background. When you set the freePatternWizard to generate your pattern, whether you choose your own colors or let the freePatternWizard choose them, be sure your original image colors reflect exactly what you want. Smile


Lauren,
A half cross stitch is basically working your stitches only one way, instead of returning and working the second slants over them to turn them into the X shape. So half cross stitches end up looking kind of like this:
/ / / / / / /
only they'll be a little different, as these slashes are a font and not a stitch, so they're not being stitched on squares, LOL.
I agree, Shaleigh's project looks totally amazing! Kiss


Scarfisized,
We're planning on adding word charts for beading at some point, but unfortunately, I don't have a time frame available.
As for distinguishing colors, have you tried designating Symbols Only or Both Colors and Symbols in section 7, under the pdf option? That should resolve the problem with colors being too close. Smile


Thank you so much Terry!!  Cheers!!

Im Anita from Illinois. Ive been beading now for 28 years mostly 3D beading. Ive been doing jewelry for about 8 yrs on and off and never worked with a beading program. I usually draw my patterns freehand but it takes so much time. Im here to share my works and and learn to use this tool to make designing easier and to help anyone in any way i can.
