Cross Stitch Saga [iPad]

The mobile assistant of advanced cross-stitchers. Created for easy reading and markup of cross-stitch patterns, to speed up the needlework process.

Cross Stitch Saga is an embroidery tool for working with the interactive cross-stitch pattern.

The application produces an interactive cross-stitch pattern from source files of pattern making programs:

• Pattern Maker v.4 (XSD)
• XSPro Platinum (XSP)
• PC Stitch v.6-10 (PAT)
• Win/MacStitch (OXS)
• Cross-stitch pattern designers and embroidery kit stores distribute an interactive pattern format (SAGA)

Note: the application doesn't open patterns from PDF documents nor raster/vector file formats (JPEG, PNG, AI, etc.).

• The application opens an interactive pattern with the different configurations of stitch types (cross, half-cross, quarter cross, petit, oblong, backstitch, long stitch, french knot, decorative stitches) and beads.

• The application is suitable for various methods of cross-stitching, such as "parking method", "cross country method", for complex patterns with backstitch, etc.

• The application keeps a detailed calendar of cross-stitching statistics on your markups in the pattern.

• The application supports the installation of additional user fonts.

• The application works in both landscape and portrait orientation provided that auto-rotation is enabled on the device.

- Add cross-stitch patterns of allowed file formats to the application from the e-mail, website, or via the Cloud service
- Use the built-in calculator to estimate materials (fabric, floss, and beads)
- Mark what is already stitched (color up or erase) in a convenient way
- Instantly navigate through the pattern, scale without loss of quality
- Rotate or mirror-flip a pattern
- Control the visibility of stitches on a pattern: highlight, isolate the necessary elements of the pattern, turn off the layers according to their types
- Instantly get all the information about each pattern element (type, color, number of threads, blended floss content)
- Sort the floss in the pattern legend list by the number of stitches remaining
- Customize the appearance of the pattern — set any color of the symbols, stitch fills, grids, background, diagonal and zigzag guides, borders and background of the isolated cross-stitch area, etc.
- Set marks for "parked" floss on the pattern
- Participate in cross-stitch competitions and marathons
- Save the progress of the pattern marks on the Cloud for safekeeping or later synchronization to other devices

An interactive cross-stitch pattern is a pattern that you control!
