Cross Stitch

Embird Cross Stitch software allows user to digitize cross stitch patterns with up to 400 x 400 crosses. Number of colors is limited to 254.

Manual and Automatic Mode

There are two ways of creating cross stitch patterns:

  1. Crossstitch pattern is created manually by drawing dots (crosses) either on a blank background or on an image (template, scanned chart).
  2. Crossstitch pattern is created automatically from imported background image (picture to cross stitch).

In both cases, program automatically generates cross stitches and arranges them to optimize the sewing process. It is possible to import the scanned chart (hand graph) and calibrate it properly to fit the background of work area, then manually draw the dots (crosses) using the chart in the background and finally compile the pattern into stitches.

Tools and Controls

Many editing tools are available for creation and adjustment of patterns: marquee, lasso, magic wand, zoom lens, eye dropper, smooth, pencil, brush, air-brush, text, line, simple curve, rectangle, round rectangle, ellipse, star, regular polygon, fill area, clear area, etc. The pre-defined fill patterns are available, and user can even create his/her own fill patterns. There are also some special functions like ‘Clear isolated points’ or ‘ thin lines’ and ‘Smooth’ parts by adding quarter crosses to corners, which allow user to clear and optimize the cross stitch pattern. The order in which the colors are sewn can be prescribed.

Lettering in Cross Stitch

Add text to your cross stitch designs with use of any TrueType or OpenType font installed on your PC. Choose font, color and size and create lettering in a few seconds. Crosses are automatically generated inside of characters. By choosing another command from menu it is possible to add the outlines around all characters easily.
