Pattern Maker is a Windows?? application for the design of counted cross-stitch patterns. It is available in two levels: Standard and Professional.

The Standard version provides a feature set which is useful to the hobbyist. The Professional version includes additional features that are most useful to professional designers.

We also offer a Machine Embroidery add-on product that can be used to export a design from Pattern Maker into one of the common home machine embroidery formats. This add-on is available for both the Standard and Professional levels of the program.

Note that while we strive to supply color representations that are as accurate as possible when displayed on a computer, it not possible to perfectly represent the color of floss/thread. For floss/thread that is variegated, over dyed, or hand dyed, the program represents the thread using a single solid color. It is especially important with these brands that you have actual color samples available when you are selecting colors for a design.
