Turn a photo into a printable cross-stitch / bead pattern with a color chart.
Cross-Stitch Pattern Maker converts a photo into a printable stitch/bead chart: it reduces the image to a grid, limits the colors, assigns a symbol per color, and adds a legend with stitch counts. It runs entirely in your browser and exports an image.
Turn any photo into a cross-stitch, pixel-bead, or perler pattern. Upload an image, choose how many stitches wide you want it and how many colors to use, and the tool reduces the picture to a clean grid, assigns a symbol to each color, and produces a printable chart with a color legend and stitch counts. Great for embroidery, hama/perler beads, tapestry, and pixel-art crafts. Everything is generated locally in your browser and can be downloaded as an image.
Cross-Stitch Pattern Maker quickly converts any photo into a structured grid chart, complete with color reduction, symbol assignment, and a legend with stitch counts. Because it runs entirely within your browser, your images are processed locally without requiring an account or file uploads to an external server.
Good to know: Very large source images or complex patterns with high color counts may require manual adjustment or a desktop application for advanced editing workflows.
