The most popular versions of the PCStitch are 10.0, 9.1 and 7.0. This PC program operate with the following extensions: '.pat', '.plb' and '.bdr'. This program is a product of M&R Technologies, Inc. The program is sometimes referred to as 'PCStitch for Windows', 'PCStitch version 5'. PCStitch relates to Photo & Graphics Tools.

However, its not been widely picked up due to its fairly young age (5 years), so does not have as much following as PC Stitch. In addition the yearly upgrades are chargable (although not required).

In addition you can move the pattern from MacStitch to WinStitch with ease. It can also open a lot of PCStitch files (not all) which makes it the most user friendly of all software programs.

PC Stitch is full program with all the trimings.

Its base ease of use is great, however it’s real advantages lie in better color picking (but I would still cast an eye over them to make sure), and 2000 pre-programmed patterns. It does have its negative though, as PC Stitch uses its own unique pattern files that can’t be opened without using PC Stitch’s separate pattern viewer. However, recently many competitors have unofficially included the ability to open, view and edit PC Stitch files. Threads: DMC, Anchor, others Print to PDF: Yes Updates: Yearly; additional cost.

($35) – 8/10 Based on 1112 reviews KG Chart has a fantastic set of stitches, incredible ease of use, and a lot of regular, and worthwhile updates. It’s been created by a non-stitcher, but their understanding of our needs is great. There’s also forums and an email for support and issues.

It’s the second most used program out there, and for £24 is a steal. There are however two things to note; firstly the colors can sometimes be a little red-based so require manual picking. The second issue is its a little buggy; it used to be our best pick, but as PCstitch started to improve, KG Chart just couldn’t keep up. Threads: DMC & Cosmo Print to PDF: No, you can download another (free) program called to do this Updates: Quarterly (FREE) – 8/10 Based on 37 reviews Built off the back of Ryijy, this pattern creator has come a long way. Initially its much like any other pattern creator, with some advanced features in the printing sections.

However, where BlendThreads stands out is the greatest two additions I think we’ve ever looked at. Firstly the thread selector program allows you to either pick a close fit thread based on what stock you have, but also allows for the blending of threads to get super accurate colors (personally, I LOVE this). Secondly is its unique backstitch portion, that allows you to ‘trace’ the image with a transparency, meaning you can get super clean back stitches.

Unlike the previous versions that were overly complicated for new users, the new Istitch has been built with simplicity in mind. In addition there are also video guides (if you purchase the DVD version) to help new designers. As a result it’s the easiest to get into at first, however finding more advanced features is a little difficult, meaning a serious designer might consider another program. You can either buy the DVD version with guide videos, or the download without videos for the same price. The main issue however is that there are no updates to the program, and based on Istitch2 being a paid update of the previous version, I’d imagine you’d have to buy a new one every time Windows updates Threads: DMC & Anchor Print to PDF: Yes Updates: Every 2 years; additional cost ($42) – 6/10 Based on 46 reviews A very new program by the online cross stitch giant Sew and So.

Its literately just been developed, and so it’s hard to comment on its long term prospects, however that’s also where my concerns lie. It’s unlikely that an online retailer has a coder on the permanent staff, meaning its unlikely to get updates, and if they do, it will likely be a costed upgrade. A little much to as considering the high price point to begin. The light version is $42, but is limited to a 500×500 work area and 50 colors. Whilst that might be all you need, there are other alternatives which offer better value for money.
