Cross Stitch Pattern Generator

Turn a photo into a real cross stitch pattern

Cross Stitch Pattern Generator turns your own photo (a pet, a portrait, a house, a child's drawing) into a printable cross stitch chart. Upload a picture, choose the finished size and the number of thread colors, and the tool builds a stitch-ready pattern in your browser.

What you control

• Stitch count and fabric count (Aida 11 to 18 and more), so the pattern fits your project
• Number of thread colors, from a quick 10-color piece to a detailed portrait
• Every color is matched to a real DMC floss number, not an approximation

What the PDF contains

• A symbol chart, split across pages with overlap markers for large designs
• A color key with DMC codes, stitch counts per color and skein estimates
• A shopping list so you can buy exactly the floss you need

Free preview, no account

The on-screen preview is free and needs no sign-up: you see the chart before paying anything. Uploaded photos are deleted within 24 hours. The printable PDF is $5.99 per photo, and an optional Stitcher Pass at $7.99 per month unlocks unlimited exports for regular stitchers. It works entirely in the browser: there is nothing to install, and the chart updates instantly when you change the size, the palette or the fabric count, so you can compare versions before you commit to stitching.
