Is anyone interested in such patterns? I'll try to find time and make them in jpg (now they are on paper).
I like beads more than cross-stich, and beading on stramin has some specific moments, that's why cs-patterns need corrections sometimes.
:$
Also I'm making my own patterns with cross-stich and other techniks not for pictures but for toys, accessories (how do you like cross-stich on felting?)... and drawing pics, that I can give someone to make pattern for cross-stich :) Everything is on paper, so if it is interesting, I can make jpg... but veeeeery slowly :))))
Here are some snapshots of "how can it be in beads" :)
I, too like the beaded effect. My question is that do you do all your work on paper versus material? I would be worried that the paper would eventually fall apart. I think I may want to start a project, not just the mill hill beaded ornaments. Thank you for sharing but please give me your opinion of what should I stitch on paper versus material.:loveliness:
If for cross-stitch - it's usual printed pattern. But changing on beads needs moving some rows to the left or right (bead can't be painted in two colors in places, where half-cross on the pattern). Now I can make only beaded pattern, if you want :) but someone can say, that it's not for cs-forum :))))
I like to work with very big and colorful pictures. As I have some problems with converting a lot of back-stitch (may be somebody have an idea, how to do it the best way), comfortable pics for converting: painted stramin canvas with flowers, contrast animals. In Russia not easy to find a lot of tones of bead colors (or they cost too much) :), that's why people, cats or any gradient pic look not good in beads... too hard converting.
I'm mixing technics. Now making religios things - icons. Not only flat work - later it'll have 3d-effects.
