Stitch a blue-and-white ceramic mixing bowl with this free printable cross-stitch pattern. Preview the chart, check the DMC floss colors, and export a PDF when the design is ready.
White ceramic rarely uses pure white alone. The soft greys and pale blues in the chart create the bowl's rim and shadow, so keep those subtle shades even if you simplify the palette for a cleaner stitch.

Real examples
StitchBitz turns the colours and shapes in a picture into a counted grid using real DMC floss shades. Open any example to inspect the chart, materials, and editable pattern.
Built for real projects
A useful photo-to-cross-stitch pattern maker needs to do more than pixelate an image. It should simplify the picture, map it to real thread colours, and leave you in control of the final chart.
Every generated colour is matched to a DMC thread code, so the chart maps to floss you can actually buy and stitch with.
Stitchability controls smooth noisy areas and reduce isolated confetti stitches while keeping the subject recognisable.
Your photo is processed on your device. It is not sent to StitchBitz or stored on a server.
Adjust colours, remove stitches, add backstitch detail, and check the floss list before exporting a PDF or JPG.
Better source, better chart
You can turn any image into a cross stitch pattern, but a few simple choices make the finished chart cleaner and easier to recognise.
Pets, portraits, flowers, ornaments, and simple objects usually translate more cleanly than a crowded scene.
A well-lit subject that stands apart from its background is easier to simplify into distinct thread colours.
Frame the part you care about first. A tighter crop gives the available stitches to the subject instead of empty space.
Good to know
The short version: it is free, private, editable, and designed to produce the files you need to start stitching.

It is a approachable kitchen pattern because the bowl has a simple outline and a limited blue-and-white palette. The decorative blue details add interest without turning the whole chart into confetti.
The chart uses porcelain whites, pale greys, and blue tones for the bowl decoration. The live floss key below lists the exact DMC codes and estimated skeins for this 14-count Aida pattern.
Yes. Use the editor preview to swap DMC colors, adjust the palette to match your thread stash, and then export the updated ceramic mixing bowl chart as a printable PDF.
The decorative blue marks are the focus of this chart. Stitch those darker blue areas after the pale bowl body so they stay crisp and easy to count against the lighter background.
