Threadologie: Beading patterns

Threadologie is a beading design app and seed bead pattern maker for peyote stitch, brick stitch, loom beading, and fringe earrings. Create beadwork designs from scratch, start from your intended finished dimensions, or turn any photo into an editable bead pattern in seconds.

Design, refine, follow, and export your projects in one app. Threadologie helps you create bracelet patterns, earring patterns, ring patterns, loom pieces, and other seed bead jewellery designs.

CREATE EDITABLE BEAD PATTERNS

Draw bead by bead with intuitive tools. Adjust colors, refine shapes, edit layouts, and create accurate bead weaving patterns that match your style and your project.

WORK WITH POPULAR BEADING STITCHES

Create designs for:

- Peyote stitch
- Brick stitch
- Loom beading
- Beaded fringe earrings
- 1-drop, 2-drop, and 3-drop variations

CHOOSE YOUR BEAD TYPE AND SIZE

Create patterns using the beads you work with, including Miyuki round seed beads, Miyuki Delica beads, TOHO, Preciosa, and Matubo.

Choose the bead type and size that fit your project. Start from the number of rows and columns you need, or enter your intended finished dimensions and let Threadologie build the matching pattern grid for you.

TURN PHOTOS INTO BEAD PATTERNS

Import a photo or image and automatically generate an editable bead pattern in seconds. Refine the result, simplify details, adjust colors, and prepare a version that is ready to weave.

DESIGN FRINGE EARRING PATTERNS

Create fringe patterns directly in the app. Experiment with length, layout, and color placement before you start beading.

CREATE CUSTOM COLOR PALETTES

Use preset palettes or build your own. Match colors to the beads you already use, keep projects consistent, and adapt each design to your materials.

FOLLOW YOUR PATTERN WHILE YOU BEAD

Use bead-by-bead or row-by-row tracking to keep your place while weaving. Follow detailed projects more easily without losing your progress.

SAVE AND REUSE SHAPES

Store reusable design elements and use them again in new projects. Work faster, create variations, and keep a consistent style across your designs.

EXPORT PRINT-READY PDF PATTERNS

Generate clear PDF bead patterns for personal use, classes, workshops, sharing, or customer delivery. Export charts, word charts, bead counts, legends, and QR codes for compatible projects.

SCAN QR CODES TO REOPEN DESIGNS

Scan a Threadologie QR code inside the app to reopen a shared pattern and continue working digitally. Move between printable charts, shared files, and your beading workspace more easily.

MADE FOR BEGINNERS AND EXPERIENCED BEADERS

Use Threadologie to sketch ideas, create jewellery patterns, convert images, follow your progress, and prepare polished beadwork patterns to share or sell.

Whether you are creating a bracelet, designing fringe earrings, preparing a loom pattern, or building a professional PDF for your customers, Threadologie gives you more clarity, speed, and control.

Design beadwork patterns with precision, from your first idea to a pattern ready to weave, share, or sell.

Recent changes:
Thank you for your feedback and feature requests - they help me improve the app!

New:
Pin the rulers to the screen edges so row and column numbers stay in view while you scroll big patterns.
In bead-by-bead tracking, the color strip now shows where you are: finished runs fade, and the run you're on is ringed and counts up with each bead you place.

Fixed: The pattern preview on the completion screen now shows up just as it should.
