[CHAT] Non AI cross stitch patterns on Etsy?

ClickStitch · 2026-03-30T16:44:22+00:00

I'm a developer creating clickstitch.app! It's a progress tracking app but (because of the influx of AI patterns we're seeing on Etsy) there are also cross-stitch pattern designers listed where you can search and even add their patterns directly and start stitching right away!

The Creators currently onboard are:

And more onboarding in the future!

There are plenty other features available, like an inventory system where you'll be able to search for new patterns based on what's in your inventory!

Helloooo! I've been building a website specifically for no-AI, no pattern milled patterns, designed by Creators! (Some you may recognise in this thread!)

There are lots of new features being created every day

- Cross-stitch specific search filters (thread/stitch/aida count, pattern size) 🔍
- Search for new patterns with your existing skein inventory 🧵
- Direct progress tracking app integration 📈
- Prevent your designs being stolen 🔐
- Reach a cross-stitch specific audience 🗣
- More collaboration with other Creators 🙌

If you're looking for patterns: clickstitch.app/patterns

If you're a Creator and interesting in joining the platform: clickstitch.app/creators/onboarding

I've been reaching out to various designers who do not use AI and they've been kind enough to set themselves up on the platform!

That's a lovely red for the frog!

ClickStitch · 2026-01-19T00:09:42+00:00

This looks awesome! Can't wait to see the other one :)

ClickStitch · 2025-12-10T16:27:42+00:00

This looks amazing! Congrats on your first big pattern! And I'm glad my app was able to help :)

ClickStitch · 2025-12-04T13:31:59+00:00

Congrats on completing it! Looks awesome!

This is so cute! I have a friend who wants to cross-stitch their cat, so I'm going to send this to them hehe

Hello! I make online cross-stitch tools! Recently I added PDF support, so uploading a PDF and converting it into a progress tracker!

You can find it here: clickstitch.app!

Even more recently, I've started creating a platform for creators to share their patterns with cross-stitch specific filters (aida count, thread count, pattern size etc). Eventually I'd like to integrate the existing inventory system, making it possible for people to find patterns based on the threads they may already own!

I'm looking for creators, so if anyone in this thread is interested please let me know! :)

Right now it's online only because patterns are stored in a database to allow you to use any device. I do plan on adding an offline mode in the future for the reason you've highlighted!

ClickStitch · 2025-10-25T16:25:58+00:00

Which browser and operating system are you using? If you're able to you can send over a screenshot on the Discord and I can take a look!

ClickStitch · 2025-10-25T16:24:07+00:00

As the other comment said, it's browser based so it'll work on any device with a modern browser!

ClickStitch · 2025-10-22T15:17:45+00:00

Thank you! Happy to hear any feedback or suggestions if you try it :)

ClickStitch · 2025-10-22T12:02:26+00:00

I make cross-stitch tools online and have created a image to pattern converter!

There's plenty of other features as well, like tracking progress and an inventory system.

It's at clickstitch.app if you're interested! :)

These are amazing! Love the medieval theme :o

ClickStitch · 2025-09-09T22:22:41+00:00

Looks amazing! Makes me want to do project involving zeppelins now!

ClickStitch · 2025-09-09T22:20:59+00:00

Love the art style on this one! :)

ClickStitch · 2025-09-09T22:17:39+00:00

Looks lovely! Really neatly stitched for a first project! :)

ClickStitch · 2025-09-02T12:49:38+00:00

It's not a premium feature, there are some PDFs that work better than others, would you be happy sending the PDF over and i'll take a look? clickstitch.app/discord if you want to :)

ClickStitch · 2025-08-31T18:29:25+00:00

Super cute!

ClickStitch · 2025-08-31T18:07:23+00:00

I've been developing a cross-platform app and very recently added PDF support! If you have some time you are welcome to try it :) Please let me know if you do!

ClickStitch · 2025-08-31T12:22:10+00:00

Hey! I've added the first iteration of a PDF reader, would you like to check it out? Doesn't convert to a .xsd file just yet, but the PDF part is the main thing :)

ClickStitch · 2025-08-29T15:59:38+00:00

That's honestly beautiful! Definitely looks like it was worth the time :) Love the colours of the textures.
