Design your own cross-stitch patterns with ease using the Cross Stitch Pattern Creator! This intuitive tool comes with four free sample patterns to get you started. For full access, a one-time activation fee of $2.99 unlocks the full potential. A tablet is recommended due to the size of the cross-stitch patterns.

To begin creating your masterpiece, simply select the "Create a Cross Stitch Pattern" button. The Cross Stitch Pattern Editor will open, ready for your creative touch. Fill the squares with DMC floss colors—or add your own custom colors for a truly unique design.
