Hey guys, a while ago I posted about getting some ideas for an app to help track cross-stitching progress.

Appreciate all your ideas, I've added some of them as new features and I'm super happy to release v1.0 today!

View it here: https://clickstitch.app

Some notable features:

  1. Track Progress - Highlight completed stitches and view analytics of your progression

  2. Manage Inventory - Record your floss, make sure you never run out before starting a new project

  3. Multi-Device - Patterns are securely stored online, so continue stitching everywhere you go

No need to install anything, all you need to do is create an account and upload your first pattern!

If you want to contact me, feel free to DM on here or on Instagram: https://instagram.com/clickstitchstudio

As always, feedback on bugs and features is always welcome! ❤️

Congrats on the v1 launch! Signed up last night, I'll be giving it a thorough investigate today.

One thing I did immediately notice though is that some of your supported patterns aren't actually available, the first one I clicked on was "Wreath of Leaves" and it leads to a dead end on Etsy. That could potentially be a really big issue if you're hoping to grow the pattern catalogue and get other designers on board, trying to maintain active links for everything would be a moderation nightmare. Just something to think about if you haven't already.

Thanks! And thanks for the feedback, defo something I need to think about since it's possibly quite involved. There is already a creator dashboard available so I've tried to make it as simple as possible, hopefully time will tell when/if people start using it!

I tried opening it on my phone but it doesn’t seem to load. Is the website down perhaps?

Sods law, the hosting provider I use is having a power cut in their datacentre, so all servers are down at the moment! Please try again tommorrow sorry!

It appears to still be down ☹️

Hmm, it's definitely up now and I've seen a few signups already. Give it a hard refresh and see if that works, if it persists give me a DM and we can troubleshoot
