Cross Stitch Pattern Creator

Unleash your creativity with the Cross Stitch Pattern Creator, a user-friendly tool that lets you design your very own cross stitch masterpieces. The app comes with four sample patterns to kickstart your journey, and while the download is free, a one-time activation fee of $2.99 unlocks the full potential of this powerful tool. For the best experience, we highly recommend using a tablet due to the intricate details of cross stitch patterns.

To begin crafting your unique designs, simply tap the "Create a Cross Stitch Pattern" button, which will open the Cross Stitch Pattern Editor. Here, you can fill in the squares using a wide range of DMC floss colors, or even customize your palette by adding your own shades. Start by using the pencil tool to paint your vision onto the canvas, and if you need to make adjustments, the eraser tool is at your disposal to clear any filled squares.

Enhance your patterns further with over 80 stamps and borders that can be easily applied to your design. The intuitive button bar at the bottom of the editor provides all the tools you need, arranged from left to right:
