Choose physical size first
A photo does not determine the final dimensions. Fabric count and the size you want to display determine the grid.
Embroidery pattern maker · counted work
Start with a grid you can actually stitch.
Choose the finished size and fabric count to see the stitch dimensions before converting a photo or drawing a chart. This planner is for counted cross-stitch—not free-form surface embroidery stitches.
Plan the stitch grid →A useful pattern starts with physical size, fabric count, and a readable chart—not just pixels.
What FlossDraft does
Preview and edit before paying to export.
A finished pattern maker needs more than a grid: palette limits, symbol readability, stitch cleanup, color replacement, a materials list, and an export you still own later. FlossDraft is built around that complete loop.
Before conversion
Three decisions that prevent an un-stitchable draft.
Limit the palette
More colors can preserve subtle gradients but also create isolated stitches and a larger floss bill. Start conservative, then add detail deliberately.
Inspect at stitch level
Faces, lettering, edges, and isolated pixels often need manual correction. A preview should expose those decisions before checkout.
