i'd like it to be as cheap as possible-- either a computer program i can download or buy, or a service where you send or e-mail your photo in and they provide you with the pattern and a list of all the thread-colors needed, etc. all the programs i've looked at online are expensive because you can use them for as many projects as you want. i just have one project i'd like to do, so i don't want to pay for something i can use for all eternity. anybody heard of this or know where to find the service? also, anyone know the cheapest way/place to buy embroidery thread? thank you!

there is a free program called PC stitch you can dowload it and use the only thing that you cant do with it is save the project unless you buy the actual project.

as for buying threads for any projects browse around on google or any other search engine and see what it pulls up. also try looking on ebay you can get some great deals on there

I have a software that can convert a picture into a chart. I can help you transform your picture into a cross stitch pattern if you wish. You can email me and we can discuss how to go about it.
Re where to purchase threads, it really depends on where you're located and/or how many skeins and colours you need.

This may not be what you want, but it's the only one I know. Hope it helps.
