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.

Thanks so much Melanie.
What sort of home improvements do you have going on? I don't mind doing them usually, but I am not working on them just for my own place, I am helping my dad renovate some apartments so we could rent them out.
My latest update is a bit... late Cheesy
But I am at the spot I was on Sunday, when I usually take the progress photos. This Monday was probably the first day in a month where I didn't work on it for at least a little while. So next weeks progress might be less. But last week I got to do more than I expected, so that is nice.
Filling in the little gaps in big patches of solid colour takes so long. A lot of colour swaps. One thread gets you sometimes only 1-3 stitches. Working really hard to keep it tidy in the back too. Not always succeeding Cheesy Might take a picture of that next time too.


yes  eventually i noticed the "black and white"button

however  when i make a pattern it misses so many stitches it's not recognizable

 either way, sooo many shades of grey it's impossible to do or sooo many missing parts that the pattern is nowhere near complete Yell
when it's set to max size it's closer than using for example 80 stitches max but that's not saying much.

confusing because it's a simple line drawing...seems that would be MUCH simpler than a complex photo or such.

iv'e downloaded a few coloring pages to stitch up, tried all the options i can think of.
Contrast, brightness settings, etc...
even tried to print it out and "fill in" the missing stitches, HA  a lesson in madness! Undecided

is it just not possible to do this?

FYI, wanted to stitch a few pillows of the Flintstones for my grandaughter Smiley   Adores them as much as i do and LOTS of coloring pages free online






is there a way to put in the number of stiches high you want

If I'm understanding your question correctly, that's the case...your turning chain does not count as a stitch; only your actual stitches count.

Melanie,

Yeah.. but they have the attentionspan of a goldfish.. it would take me tale same amount of time to teach them, as it would for me to just make the blanket :p hava..
