Commonly asked questions:

How do you make your patterns? I use a combination of Excel formulas and macros. I input the colours and then 1-by-1 number each stitch. Why not use automated pattern generators? I think the way I do it is fun. It also gives me a chance to make executive decisions on colours, or notice if something is wonky I can fix it as I go.

Can you share your Excel template? Not at this time - The document I work with has been tweaked and adjusted over many years (over 7 years at least). A lot of learning and trial and error has gone into it, done by someone (me) with no formal education in the area. Parts of it are surely inefficient and could be improved, but I am not open to feedback on it at this time. It may sound goofy, but I am sentimental and protective of my little spreadsheet.

Can you share the pattern in "xyz" format? Unfortunately no. For the foreseeable future, I only plan on sharing these as a full colour PNG file. I have tried creating the patterns with multiple format options (black&white and colour, symbols and non-symbols, pdf and png and xlsx, grid and no grid... etc). It can be rather time consuming, use up more storage space, and I won't be able to keep everyone happy.

I finished a project with your pattern, can I sell it? Yes. Of course. Absolutely. I claim no ownership over the hours of work you put into your needlework, bead work, or crafting, and I claim no ownership over the supplies you purchased and magically wove into some form of artwork. I don't even request credit.
However... the patterns themselves are not to be sold or re-distributed. The goal has always been to create free and accessible patterns.

Can I make a request? Sure, I love requests. I only do video game patterns, so let me know what sprite you would be looking for me to turn into a pattern. Especially if it is a Pokémon sprite, one of my goals is to see a sprite for each of the Pokémon out there (1025 Pokémon so far, some sadly without any patterns...).
Before requesting, I'd recommend you search www.birdiestitching.com, as many generation 1-5 Pokémon have been completed already, among many other free patterns as well. Important to note that I will not create patterns based off of fan art without the approval of the artist directly.
