site news and information

Hi, All

First, for anyone having any problems bringing up the freePatternWizard pattern creation software by using the top drop-down menu, feel free to Take This Link


Our showcase has been updated. If you've previously uploaded a showcase in the past, please check to see if it's been posted; meanwhile, if you want to submit one (or another one, if you've already posted before), feel free to do so!


Also note we now have an additional (optional) assembly page for the freePatternWizard. This is for larger pieces that have multiple pages. Much smaller patterns won't need this.


To freePatternWizard paid Premium subscribers having problems logging in:

If you're logged into your Stitchboard account (shows "Hi, name" in the upper right corner of each page), you can ignore the rest of this message.

If you're not logged into your Stitchboard account and you are a freePatternWizard paid Premium subscriber, please take this link one time to verify your subscription(s). It will also ask you to change your password. Again, you only need to do this once.

If you are not a paid Premium subscriber and are having problems logging in, try logging into the Stitchboard website. If you see an "Invalid login username or password" message, you may need to re-register at this link or by clicking the "Register" link at the top of the page. If you try re-registering and get a "duplicate email address" message, you'll need to go through the "password change" function by using this link.

Hello, this is my first time using this site, and I'm trying to upload a PDF document with words to convert it to a cross stitching pattern.  It's not letting me do that.  Is there a way to do it?
TIA


I had the same problem with black linen! I was so thrilled with not having to make fractional stitches because I was using linen, then discovered how hard it was to see the stitches. Cry I never finished the project.
Things that were suggested to me at the time were to use something light on my work surface (LOL, mostly my lap) and another way is to light up a work surface (such as a light showing on the lighter colored item on your work surface). You can also try a bright work light shining on the fabric itself, something with a bulb made for closeup work. A magnifier could help, too. (I did not have more than the fabric to put on my lap back then.)
Some of the solutions aren't easy and some can be pricey (like a really good closeup work light), but they do tend to help. Kiss
The advantage is that if you can work it out, anything stitched on black fabric looks soooo stunning! Kiss I had finished other black fabric items back when my eyes were far better and seeing on black didn't drive me nuts.


Secoya,
Fantastic! I don't want to miss anything you post and I don't want anyone else to, either! Kiss


Tanya,
Welcome! Smile
Australia...love it! Kiss
No worries, I also have Windows woes, so I can completely empathize. Hope you can sort out the issues soon. Windows can be totally frustrating!
