When I saw Gunnsan's Xstitch I decided to digitize a photo as well. It's done automatically in 3D CrossStitch. It measures 8.5 x 9.5 cm (3 1/2" x 3 3/4"). The programme was set at 12 colours, which I did not change. It has lots of jump stitches. I cut them meticulously, as cross stitches are fairly open, so any jumps would show. Don't know yet whether to frame it or use it for some project.

Try it out, 10tje, it's done with only a few clicks of a button provided your picture has a good contrast.
52672This is lovely. I still have to do some in PE design. Just all my other projects get in the way. I did some Photo Stich some time ago ( my late Brother and his family , as a family tree-which was posted earlier). That was really easy in PE 4 now it's up to 8 and havn't gone there yet Seeing yours give me the insentive.

Thank you. The photostitch part of 3D does not like me, I don't get satisfactory results, but this cross stitch module is great.

743327That is a little doll! What a beautiful smile! You did a great job.
24961Thank you all for your kind remarks. Flowers to all of you.
145305Fantastic job mops, Sfumato in Embird has this feature but haven't gotten around to using it yet...will have to give it a try...assume a black and white photo from a professional would work the best...*4U
27071Too beautiful!The photo appears white and black, have you use 12 colours or only black grey and white?
I wish to do that also!
I have 3D croos stitch, I will try to learn with the book, if it is too difficult I will ask you to help me

It was a black and white picture. Strangely enough the software put some ecru in the face. The rest was white to black. Flower for you and everyone else.
25533What a wonderful job. Congratulations. I suggest you have to frame it. Flower and XoXo
44254Looks great! I've been working a digitizing a picture and it looks okay but the facial features are still in process. My machine will auto Xstitch so you have inspired me to try it. Thanks

I'm glad I inspired you. That 's what these pages are for, I suppose. Gunnsan got me going. Hope yours turns out well.

Hi there Adele it's great to see you back on here! Love and blessings Chris
34304Thank you all for your kind comments. This result is due to the photographer and the software, to be honest. It literally takes minutes to digitize and could hardly be easier. Flowers for you all.
145305Mops - what a great job, and such a little darling! We need to all get together and learn more from each other. I so want to learn to use my software and get things like this done!

To be honest, this is the easiest part of my software. But you need a really good picture to start with, or be very good with photoshop or whatever program you use to fiddle with and enhance pictures. This was a black-and-white done by a professional photographer who normally does things for brochures, PR and so on. I have tried other pictures, did not look good in the sw so I never stitched those out. So get a nice picture with good contrasts and try it out!
44905Lovely for an automatically done digitized photo. She would look great framed or on a display type cushion. *4U ><

63126What a lovely natural picture of your Granddaughter. To be able to digitize then embroider it & for it to come out so lifelike is so clever Mops.

Thank you. It does look almost real, specially from some distance. I choose the smallest x-stitch possible (1.2 mm) in order not to loose much detail. Flower for you.
58029Mops, this is beautiful - what was the program and how much? Now that you have stitched it - you can stitch another - then you can have one to frame and one for a project. Hehehe! I love this - who is the girl? *4U

Thank you, Shirlene. This is my granddaughter, Nanne, aged 3. My son had his son done 2 years ago, when he was 3, by the same photographer. So I think I'll do him as well. Yes, I can now stitch it out as often as I wish. Maybe a present for the other gran as well. The program was part of 3D Pro, pfaff/husqvarna software. I had done a couple of Xstitch patterns digiziting by hand, never tried a photo before. *4U
