What's New in StitchStash

2.6

October 31, 2026

What's new in 2.6 Bring your pattern's colors into your project: • Extract thread colors, printed stitch counts, skein amounts and strand counts from PDF or photographed thread keys. Scanned legends are read on your device. • Review colors before importing: correct brands and thread numbers, edit stitch counts and skein amounts, and choose which entries to include. Open and zoom the PDF without losing your edits. • Check blends and uncertain results, scan selected pages, and see a stitch total for your selection. Repeated legends are recognized; missing counts stay empty. • Save pattern counts with your project colors and include them in backups. Reimporting preserves existing project quantities and checkmarks. Photo Pattern Maker now keeps its stitch counts too. A refreshed look and helpful fixes: • Larger color previews and separate Collection and Shopping List quantity controls in Color Detail. • Thread-color thumbnails and banners for projects without photos, plus clearer project summaries, tags, filters, updates and timer rows. • Consistent Collection and Shopping List colors and badges, and refreshed Settings with colored icons and a redesigned Pro card. • The iPad new-project editor stays open when the window changes between compact and regular layouts. • Thread-removal confirmations now show custom thread names and the correct brand and number for catalog threads. • New variegated threads: Anchor Multicolour and shaded colors and all 140 Cosmo Seasons colors, plus corrected Anchor, Cosmo and Olympus colors. • Adding threads to a project now offers the main brands you choose in Settings, and the Apple Watch app and Shopping List widget recognize threads from every brand. Happy stitching!

Very helpful

Exactly what I’ve been looking for

I was so excited to find this app. It’s everything I’ve been looking for to keep track of my floss so I was happy to pay the low cost for the pro version especially because it wasn’t subscription based. It’s so easy to add projects and I like that it times how long I’ve been working on it and I can see what floss I am missing for the project. It won’t track your stitches but that’s not really something I care about so if you do, keep that in mind. I am still learning to use it and see what features are offered but so far I am a big fan.

The cons - I do wish it would show all Dmc colors when I’m adding colors, not just the solid colors. You have to search specialty floss and add them one by one instead of in a group selection which leads me to the next con, THE LAG! Omg the lag is SO bad. It never crashed on me but it took me forever to add my specialty floss. It seems the search feature really bogs the app down and you really have to be patient. Overall I would just like to see a list of every color so I can compare what I have to what is available. Otherwise I am very happy and will continue to use this app!

Love Love Love This

I absolutely love this app. I use in to keep track of my thread so that I do not double buy any. This app is also affordable. The Pro version costs about the same as an embroidery hoop. I feel like it is worth it for all of the organization and project planning you can do within the app. One thing I would love within the app is to have a color palette option with just color palettes. You can import projects and make a color palette there, but I am wanting a designated area to keep my color palettes in. Just a suggestion! Keep up the good work!

Response from developer

Thank you so much! Enjoy using the app :)

Love it

We don’t have a Michael’s or Hobby Lobby anywhere near me (in Germany) so whenever I find a shop that sells DMC (rare) or is having a sale on them (even more rare), I buy as many as I can.

The problem is I don’t know what I have at home. I don’t think anyone does, really.

So a whole bunch of floss was stacking up at my place and I decided enough was enough. $5 for an app that doesn’t have a subscription strategy or tracks everything I do inside and outside the app? I’d say it’s worth it.

I organized my skeins and then started going through the app adding however many I had (no surprise DMC 310 is the winner and B5200 takes the second place but third goes to DMC 35 which was a bit of a shock since it comes up so rarely in the patterns I do) and building my inventory (or collection as it’s called in the app).

All told, I currently have 177 colors and 287 skeins.

Adding more is easy, as is subtracting when you finish a bobbin. I think the hardest part is going to be remembering to keep it updated as I stitch so for that reason it stays on the front page of my phone.

Anyway, it’s a clean app that’s easy to use and satisfies a need I had. I like that it’s a one-and-done purchase and it doesn’t track me. For $5 this feels like an absolute no-brainer to me.
