needlebook — track your stitching journey Your needlepoint companion, from wishlist to finished piece. needlebook helps you organize every part of your needlepoint life — your canvas collection, thread stash, project progress, and shopping lists — all in one beautifully designed app built by stitchers, for stitchers. MANAGE YOUR PROJECTS Track canvases from wishlist through completion. Add photos at every stage — canvas reference shots, work-in-progress updates, and finished pieces — organized into beautiful typed galleries. Log stitching sessions, track your progress percentage, and celebrate when you finish. BUILD YOUR THREAD STASH Search thousands of threads from popular brands like Appleton, DMC, Silk & Ivory, and more. Track what you own, how much you have left, and get low stock alerts. Sort your stash by color (rainbow order!), brand, or amount remaining. SMART SHOPPING LISTS needlebook automatically compares your project thread lists against your stash and tells you exactly what you're missing and what's running low — with the total yardage you need. Mark items as purchased right from the list and they disappear automatically. CANVAS COMMUNITY Discover canvases other stitchers are working on. Browse community photos of finished pieces and works in progress. See what threads others used for the same canvas. Copy thread lists to jump-start your own project. STAY CONNECTED Follow fellow stitchers, react to their progress updates and finished pieces, and leave comments. Get notified when someone follows you, reacts to your post, or comments on your work. ADD CANVASES EASILY Paste a link from your favorite needlepoint shop and needlebook automatically fills in the details. Or search the community database. Tag canvases to help others discover them — tags are community-curated and ranked by popularity. ORGANIZE WITH PHOTOS Categorize your project photos as canvas references, progress shots, or finished pieces. Drag photos between categories. Rearrange with a tap-and-hold jiggle mode. Your best photo automatically becomes the project's hero image. We hope you love needlebook!
