What’s New Version 1.16
What's New in Version 1.16
Added simplified support for the Dimensions (USA) thread palette.
Fixed issues with custom color collections when working with multiple brands simultaneously.
Description
Your photos — your creative pattern.
pixel2stitch is the easiest way to turn your favorite photos into detailed cross‑stitch or bead art patterns.
WHY YOU WILL LOVE PIXEL2STITCH:
• Powerful and accurate converter
Upload photos from your gallery, camera, or clipboard. Our algorithm accurately converts the image into a pixel pattern using the official palettes of DMC, Anchor, Gamma, Madeira, Dimensions, Olympus, PNK threads or Perler fusible beads.
• Full control over the pattern
Adjust complexity: choose the pattern size from 19 to 320 elements on the long side.
Control the palette: limit the number of colors for simplicity.
Select the thread/bead brand to use its palette, or choose only the colors you already have in your stash.
Work with transparency: upload PNG images with no background.
• Smart editor and progress tracking
Built‑in editor: Mark stitched crosses or placed beads directly on the pattern.
Progress visualization: Track overall progress and progress per color separately.
Nothing gets lost: The app automatically saves your progress and syncs patterns across your devices.
• Export and material calculation
Ready‑to‑print PDFs: Export the pattern split into convenient pages.
Material Calculator: Find out the exact floss length or bead count for each color to buy the right amount.
THE MAIN ADVANTAGE — COMPLETE FREEDOM
No subscriptions, no in‑app purchases — the only limit is your imagination.
We believe creativity should be accessible to everyone.
Start bringing your memories to life today!

Build 884661292v1.142026-04-25 01:15:16

Build 884033786v1.132026-04-02 23:38:32
What's New in Version 1.13
You no longer need to know how to embroider to capture important moments! The new version adds the Perler color palette. This is fusible beads for creating mosaic pictures, toys, and decorations. The beads don't need to be sewn — they easily assemble on a pegboard and are fixed with heat.
Simple, fun, accessible to everyone.
Build 883133787v1.122026-03-24 01:28:00
What's New in Version 1.12
In this version, we’ve added the ability to create embroidery patterns based on your personal thread stash. Now you can select “Custom Palette” in the settings and mark the colors you already have at home — from the standard DMC, Anchor, or Gamma ranges. The app will generate a pattern using only the selected shades.
Who this is for:
• You have lots of leftover threads from past projects
• You want to start a new project but aren’t ready to buy new threads
• You need to quickly see if a pattern can be stitched using what you already have
If you use threads from another brand, simply choose the closest available shade or use external color conversion charts. In future updates, we plan to add support for more thread brands.
Build 882821343v1.112026-03-04 17:13:49
What's New in Version 1.11
• Thread brand selection.

• Expanded app localization.
Even more people can now use the app in their native language.
• Minor fixes and improvements.
