Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a pattern?
A 18×18 pattern (324 beads) typically takes 2-3 hours for beginners. Larger patterns (32×32, 40×40) can take 8-12+ hours for photorealistic results.
What image types work best?
High-contrast images, logos, silhouettes, and drawings work best. Photos with soft gradients may lose detail at smaller grid sizes (use 24×24 or larger).
Can I use any color bead?
Yes! Our tool includes Basic (11 colors), Pastel, and Bright palettes. You can adapt the pattern to beads you already have on hand.
Is there a limit to image size?
No limit! We process images of any size. The grid dimensions determine the final detail level, not the source image resolution.
