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.
To read a particular post, simply click on it!
Is there a way that we can add text to the graphs?
I'm motivated on this one to finish it. My husband had a stroke last year and it makes you realize how precious time is. I'll probably just take it to Michaels to have it framed. We used to have a really good framing shop in town, but it closed a couple of years ago. So here's an updated picture...the first picture was taken about two weeks ago. I'll post it again after I get it finished.
Hi everyone!
In June 2019, my grandma gave me a plastic canvas/half cross stitching/needlepoint kit. I was so happy with the result that I bought a cross stitch kit, which I loved even more. Now, almost a year later I am still stitching, with a sickening amount of patterns that are waiting to be stitched. I have a sort of addiction to buying patterns, but the ones I have started are looking good so far. I am so lucky to have cross stitch, especially during this time. Imagine all of the people who have nothing better to do and just sit on their phones all day! At least we get to create beautiful things. I started sewing when I was seven and have always loved to stitch, coming from a long line of tailors. I found Stitchboard, and I am very happy because I was looking for a good photo conversion software--and this is free! I still do plastic canvas/needlepoint, but cross stitching is my favorite. I also do a little knitting and crochet. I very much dislike, howver, when people call my cross stitching "crochet". Does that bother anyone else?
Anyhow, cross stitching is a great way to spend time. People often ask me how I did it, and they refuse to believe me on how simple it is. I made every possible mistake, however. I started at the very corner, not the center, I used all six strands of floss, and, until recently, my stitches were not in the same direction. Read instructions and watch videos first! Besides these painful regrets, cross stitching has enhanced my life and my mood. I am happy to be a part of the stitchboard community: I was looking for good cross-stitch forums and a place to sell my patterns!

De'Andrea,
Wow, you're really getting to the end!
I know, two-ish months is a long time, but
considering how much time you've already put into it...AMAZING that
you're so close now! Oooh, I hope you'll be able to hand deliver it!
Glad you can take the vacation time! Oh, no, do you think Michaels is trying to wean you from your bead addiction?
This is a serious crime! LOL!Seriously, it's hard to find decent beads at craft stores! They generally don't carry much.
I've had to order most of my beads, too...there's
really nothing in my area. Can't wait to see more pics!
I'm enjoying your in progress ones because I LOVE
seeing your progress from time to time! Of course, seeing it finished will be fantastic!
Elaine,
Thanks for checking in with us!
