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.

Hi, 

There is alot of info on You tube. Some better to understand than others.  All you have to do is join, and make sure you read the info on the home page and bottom left.  There is alot of You Tubers for cross stitch call themselves Flosstubers.  Hope this helps.

lmricci,
Welcome! Smile I've forwarded your message to Terry, who does our support, but in the meantime, did you upload a large image? The freePatternWizard doesn't work like a graphics program, so if you have an image that's (for example) 3500x3500 pixels, bringing it down to 300x300 will only confuse it. Also, a jpg is a difficult file type to work with, because it's not detailed like a gif. It will tend to add extra pixels and "smudge" colors. You can see those if you import the image into a graphics program and then zoom in very close, to a pixel level.


I'm trying to create filet name book marks and when I create a pattern I get a chart that is much bigger than a book mark.  Help.

Line,

Thank you so much. Kiss
When my kids were young, I wouldn't have been able to concentrate on something like that either, I did the stuffed toys and such in the couple of hours after they went to bed.

But the kids are all grown now, and some of the grandkids are grown, with babies of their own. I have the time.

This one has been finished and sent off to it's new home, for yet another grand baby due in just a few days.

Here is the finished pic I got while blocking it.



Sandy,

Welcome!  Smile

If you're not worried about time and the investment to bead from a photo, then the best thing is to use the full bead palette of Miyuki (seed beads if that's the way you're going, or Delica if you're looking for cylinder beads).  If cost and time are more important, we have the Stitchboard Basic Palette available.  This palette has light/medium/dark of most colors...the colors won't be as nice as using the full Delica or seed bead palette, but there will be a lot less of an investment, as bead colors can really add up with just a few to purchase.
