Why do you only sell charts? Why don’t you sell cross stitch kits?
As a stitcher for more than 45 years, I’ve had my share of ordering kits and having to repurpose the thread, fabric, and embellishments. In the end, many projects ended up with a majority of supplies that I never used and finally ended up donating, which then cost me at least twice the kit cost in replacing those fabrics, threads, and embellishments!
Offering the patterns allows my customers to create one-of-a-kind, personalized and customized pieces in the sizes they prefer and using the materials and supplies they love the most.
I want to submit an image I found online for you to convert. Can I do that?
Yes and no. If the image/painting is in the public domain (i.e. created before 1930) then yes, I can convert it for you; the same goes with personal photographs and self-created paintings and images. However, I do not knowingly create charts or otherwise manipulate images that are not in the public domain due to copyright infringement.
I trust you to provide images that abide by these laws and am not/will not be held responsible for images/submissions that do not meet them.
General Information – Cross Stitch:
Our renderings are mostly square but can generally be altered to your sizing requirements.
Here’s an example of fabric/stitch count comparisons:
9-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 112.78 cm x 112.78 cm (44.4″ x 44.4″)
11-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 92.5 cm x 92.5 cm (36.4″ x 36.4″)
14-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 72.6 cm x 72.6 cm (28.6″ x 28.6″)
16-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 63.5 cm x 63.5 cm (25″ x 25″)
18-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 56.4 cm x 56.4 cm (22.2″ x 22.2″)
20-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 50.8 cm x 50.8 cm (20″ x 20″)
22-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 46.2 cm x 46.2 cm (18.2″ x 18.2″)
25-count 400 x 400 stitches = Design size: 40.7 cm x 40.7 cm (16″ x 16″)
Once you order a pattern and choose the desired fabric count, we will confirm the design size and the correct fabric size to purchase. All fabric sizes will include a 3-inch border all around the design size to accommodate framing once complete.
General Information – Diamond Painting:
For diamond paintings, all our charts measure at least 50cm x 50cm (about 20 inches square) and larger so that we capture as much detail as possible. Trust us, faces, especially, need detail!
