Cross stitch is another of my favourite things to do, have done many, many pieces, but haven’t done any in a while.
But.....
Several years ago, I came to find a cross stitch app......installed it on an iPad......loved doing them as well as jigsaw puzzles on line.
When I updated my iPads with new ones......I deleted a lot of the apps off the old ones.....but.....by mistake, I deleted the cross stitch one.....dumb me.
I’ve been searching for it again, i found a similar one, I love it.....they’re free.....there are some that can buy, but I don’t .......on this one you can download your own pics and do them, which is what I’m doing.

Used to love it, that and needlepoint. Unfortunately, my eyes and shaking hands can't manage it anymore. What is the link for that app @MickaC?
On your search……just type in…..install cross stitch world…..click on the app that looks like the one I posted.
Sorry…..that’s the best I can do…..that’s what I did.
The proper link for it…..beats me…..there’s several with that name.
Hope this helps.
 
These are a few pieces I’ve done and kept for myself……have made and given, many, many away.

I used to love to design my own needlepoint and make pillows from them. But, I got ambitious and did a 4 foot by 8 foot tapastry of my own Ancient Egyptian design. It took a long, long time! After it was finished, it was stolen.
That kinda ruined any enthusiasm to do any more in this medium.

Sounds like it was an amazing beauty, sorry to hear it was stollen……I know you’ll never be able to replace it…..sadly.
 
I used to do cross-stitch, counted crossstich, needle point and embroidery on transfer patterns or my own designs, until about 10 years ago when the arthritis & nerve problems in my hands got too bad to do it. I miss it. Still have a few pieces, that I kept. Really enjoyed it to take my mind off work.
