Want to fix a few stitches?
Draw, erase and fill single stitches, swap or merge colors, clean up strays, and check against your photo.
A good first project: a few colors and whole stitches only. Free to stitch for yourself, as a gift, or to sell the finished piece.
Stitching tip: Change the box and ribbon colors to match your own wrapping paper. Small enough to finish as a gift tag or a tree ornament.
