Using the Cross Stitch Design Wizard

Use the Cross Stitch Design Wizard to convert pictures automatically to crosses. Also use the Cross Stitch Design Wizard to load a picture as a background only, load an existing cross stitch design or start a new design with no picture.

The Cross Stitch Design Wizard is started by New and also when mySewnet™ Cross Stitcher is started.

Create QuickCross Design

Create a new design by converting color areas in a picture to crosses. Choose an existing picture or obtain a new picture from a scanner or digital camera. If desired, crop the picture and straighten scanned pictures. Set the cross size and design area in crosses, or select a hoop to set the design area. Select the maximum number of colors and the desired thread range to use for the cross colors.
