Diamond Painting Pattern Maker

Diamond Stitches Pattern Maker is a diamond painting and cross-stitch pattern maker that creates patterns from any photo, turning them into a ready-to-craft chart—matched to real DMC diamond painting and embroidery floss colors. Whether you're planning your next diamond painting canvas or stitching a cross-stitch piece, pick a photo to create numbered pattern in seconds. No design skills needed. WHY CRAFTERS USE THIS DIAMOND PAINTING & CROSS-STITCH PATTERN MAKER ★ Two pattern types, one app Switch instantly between diamond painting mode and cross-stitch mode. Each is rendered the way you'd expect to see it on a real canvas or Aida cloth — diamonds for diamond painting, X-stitches with symbols for cross-stitch. ★ Real DMC color matching Every color in your pattern is matched to the closest of 454 standard DMC embroidery floss shades using precise CIE Lab color-distance matching — the same color science professional pattern designers use. Your finished piece will look just like your photo, not a rough approximation. ★ Full control over detail - Adjust grid width from small and simple to large and highly detailed - Choose how many DMC colors to use (from a handful up to 100) - Zoom in or out to check stitch-by-stitch detail - Toggle grid lines and symbols on or off - Turn on smooth shading (dithering) for gradient-heavy photos like sunsets, portraits, and landscapes ★ Compare before you commit Not sure how much detail you need? Use Compare Color Levels to preview your finished piece side-by-side at multiple color counts, so you can pick the perfect balance of detail vs. thread count before you start stitching or placing diamonds. ★ Everything you need to start crafting - Download your pattern as a high-resolution PNG for printing or reference - Export a complete DMC color key as a CSV — DMC number, color name, hex code, count, and percentage of the design - Print directly from the app - See an estimated skein count for cross-stitch projects ★ Works completely offline Your photos are processed entirely on your device. Nothing is uploaded anywhere, so you can turn family photos, pet portraits, landscapes, and any other picture into a pattern anytime — no internet connection required, no account needed.
