Stitch Garden: Cross Stitch

Turn your cross stitch chart into a working companion. Highlight a thread color, mark completed stitches and see your progress grow. Open Pattern Maker (.xsd), Open Cross Stitch (.oxs), PCStitch (.pat) and PDF charts exported from design software, including symbol-only and black-and-white prints. Support for image-based PDFs is limited. Scans and photos of paper charts aren’t supported. A sample chart is included, so you can explore the app as soon as you open it.

STITCH WITH EASE
• Tap or drag to mark completed stitches. Erase marks, undo and redo.
• Mark all remaining stitches of one color with a single tap.
• Highlight a symbol to find its stitches across the chart, and lock the color to prevent accidental changes.
• See stitch counts for each run along rows, columns or both — without counting squares on the screen.
• Keep track of parked needles so you know where to return.
• Select a rectangular or freehand work region to focus on part of the chart.
• Navigate large charts with the navigator and rulers.
• Mark the chart’s center and the center of every block of ten.
• Use the app in any of eleven languages.

ORGANIZE YOUR CHARTS
• Gather charts into albums — by designer, season or what’s next.
• Keep a chart in several albums at once; nothing disappears from your library.
• Search, filter and sort charts within each album.

YOUR CHART, YOUR WAY
• Hide layers you don’t need: symbols, full stitches, half stitches, quarters, backstitch, French knots, beads or marked progress. Each chart remembers its own settings.
• Rotate the chart in quarter turns to match how you position your canvas.
• Customize the symbols in your color key.
• See each stitch type on its own color-key tab and sort by stitch count.
• Adjust grid line thickness, and show or hide symbols.
• Choose the color used to highlight completed stitches.
• Track full and fractional stitches, backstitch, French knots and beads.

SEE YOUR PROGRESS
• Look back over your stitching days in a calendar, with a monthly breakdown by project.
• See weekly, monthly and total stitch counts, daily bests, streaks and stitching speed.
• Track your stitching sessions, with long pauses excluded.
• Get an estimated finish date based on your pace.

SET STITCHING GOALS
• Set daily, weekly, monthly or yearly goals across all charts.
• Progress rings show whether you’re on pace to meet each goal.
• Add home screen widgets for today’s goal, all goals or your current chart.

CAPTURE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS
• Save photos of your work with a record of your progress at the time.
• Create a video of your chart filling in or a slideshow of your progress photos.
• Show the chart alongside your photos and export a vertical video to share.

PLAN YOUR MATERIALS
• Estimate thread and bead quantities, including strand counts for each stitch type.
• Calculate fabric size from your fabric count and chosen margins.
• Add your own prices to estimate project costs.
• Build a shopping list that takes your existing thread stash into account.
• Use metric or imperial measurements.

CONTINUE ON ANOTHER DEVICE
• Export and import progress to continue on another device with the same chart.
• Sync your charts, progress, albums and goals between your Android devices through a private folder in your own Google Drive.

PDF compatibility and the stitch types imported depend on how the chart was created. Check image-based PDFs after importing.
