We've finally been able to get downloadable kits set up on the website and are hoping that these will become as popular as the paper charts, especially with our overseas customers as they will be able to save on the postage. Our downloadable kits include all the information that is included in our paper kits.
I only use PDF charts myself and load them onto my iPad using a free app called Goodreader, this is also available on Android. There are a number of other free apps, all you need to do is google Free PDF Reader Apps to see the best.
Having my charts on my tablet removes the old problem of the print being too small as you can zoom in and zoom out on any area of the chart. Most of the apps also have the facility to enable you to mark off the stitches that you complete; all in all a much better idea than a paper chart which has been folded so many times it's lost some of its detail!
I had a customer recently who contacted me while she was on holiday because her chart had blown away while she was stitching outside, I was able to send her a PDF replacement immediately so that she could continue with the project she had bought specifically for this holiday.
Even if you don't want to use the downloadable file on a tablet, purchasing it online means that you have your kit immediately and can always print the chart on your own printer.
Our downloadable charts are available on all our Games boards and a selected number of the 'Painting by Stitching' and 'Creating by Stitching' designs, as we see how popular these charts are we will roll them out across all our other designs.
If you're interested in trying one of the dowloadable kits, just select the downloadable option of the product and add it to the cart, follow the instructions to make payment (you won't be charged shipping wherever you live), once payment is complete you will receive an e-mail link from where you will be able to download the kit.
Happy Stitching!
