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
From picture to a chart you can actually stitch
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.
Real DMC floss colours
Every generated colour is matched to a DMC thread code, so the chart maps to floss you can actually buy and stitch with.
Cleaner, more stitchable charts
Stitchability controls smooth noisy areas and reduce isolated confetti stitches while keeping the subject recognisable.
Private browser processing
Your photo is processed on your device. It is not sent to StitchBitz or stored on a server.
Edit before you download
Adjust colours, remove stitches, add backstitch detail, and check the floss list before exporting a PDF or JPG.
Better source, better chart
What pictures work best for cross stitch?
You can turn any image into a cross stitch pattern, but a few simple choices make the finished chart cleaner and easier to recognise.
Choose one clear subject
Pets, portraits, flowers, ornaments, and simple objects usually translate more cleanly than a crowded scene.
Look for contrast
A well-lit subject that stands apart from its background is easier to simplify into distinct thread colours.
Crop before adding detail
Frame the part you care about first. A tighter crop gives the available stitches to the subject instead of empty space.
