Your Loved One’s Photo to a Cross Stitch Pattern!

Check out this cool resource to convert your loved photo to a cross stitch pattern!   Its so simple even a kid could do it easily.  There are a few sample patterns that you could download for free.   You could also upload your own photo and convert it to a cross stitch pattern (free for patterns less than 1000 stitches).

The building cross stitch pattern on top is 300 stitches width by 200 stitches height.   What is really intriguing is the fineness of the design with specific details illustrated clearly.

The family cross stitch pattern I did below was by uploading an image (jpeg) onto the software at Picture Craftwork.   The image should be less than 2 MB.  You could then choose the floss and the density of the stitch after which you can preview to see the final product.   “Generate Chart” allows you a download of the stitch chart for your reference.

    Hi Nirosha,

    Yes you may share videos… Cross stitch courses are available on the net, but my advice is that if you have some exposure to the basic stitch patterns (even if you do not, you could learn these free searching on the net) – do a few projects and you would learn much more!

    You can get really good quality photo-based cross stitch patterns and full custom kits as well as exclusive designs at http://www.momwiz.com I put in a full decade of intense work making sure the color palette is accurate, and make work with every order personally so you won’t get odd color areas, mottled faces or strange interpretations of your important photos. Your work is too hard-earned to end up with less than spectacular results! I’d advise using any online service with immediate processing with caution, as results can be surprising and not in a good way. Free pattern available, so check it out at http://www.momwiz.com/custom.htm
