How to Repaint (XSD)

Hi all, I recently downloaded Pattern Maker Pro 4, but I have absolutely no clue how to make a repaint. Do you need the cross stitch pattern first, or could you use pictures? Any help is appreciated! (P.S. I did find a thread about this, but it made no sense to me haha ^_^')

BoingBoing Publish time 2024-3-4 19:06

Do you want to make your own pattern, or do you want to convert an existing pattern to a repaint?

Mmmmason Publish time 2024-3-4 21:37

What's the post you found that didn't make sense?

anniekins Publish time 2024-3-4 22:56

You can either convert a picture into a cross stitch pattern or convert an existing cross stitch pattern into a repaint. It's your choice.

I see cross stitch patterns an I wanted to get one but with never doing it before I noticed it says repaint on some and other things on others and I wasn't sure what any of that means

Thank you for your lovely questions. I would like to convert a picture of an existing cross stitch (not the pattern) into a repaint, if that's possible. As for the person whom asked which thread I didn't understand, I'm very sorry but I seem to have forgotten which one and what it was called!
