Loomerly: Loom, peyote & brick

Best bead pattern maker I have found. I requested that they add letters to the symbols, which they did! Very responsive developer. Now I want even more, of course. I would love an option to make peyote stitch stars, a tila bead option, and to be able to select one row of peyote stitch beads at a time. (I’ll send an email about that. I was going to request a batch-color-replace feature, but I just discovered the app has that now! Custom bead colors would also be great. Overall, an excellent app! Oh, and my friend wants an android version :)

Please include netting graph capability

This app is fantastic if you are only doing 100% peyote, loom, brick and brick with fringe but there needs to an option for in the brick with fringe for square stitch. It needs to set in between the fringe and brick. Perhaps the next best improvement! Also need all of the Czech glass beads not just the Traditional Preciosa Ornela color line. There are a lot missing; please add. Perhaps an update on all color lines to validate all are present. Please and thank you. :)

Have recently started using this app and it is pretty good so far. Only giving 3 stars, because there is still room for improvement, even for as good and user friendly as it already is. So far, I can only find 3 things I would change: 1) be able to add a reference/finished product photo to the pattern files. 2) be able to use different style beads in patterns such a bugles and tilas, with appropriate representation in the patterns. 3) be able to fully edit as well as create colors to the pallets. Right now, you can edit the descriptions and color representation, but you can’t change the actual title of the color (ex. 401, even edited, stays 401). You also can’t create colors, especially in the “generic” color pallet. Only one red and one grey, but can’t add or create lighter or darker shades. Also no ‘between colors’ such as teal, yellow-green, or blue-purples. The store that I get my beads from sells Miyukis, but some of the colors that I have aren’t represented (don’t know if they are supplemented with unknown brand, or what). So if I try to create a pallet with the colors that I own, it looks like I only have 15 colors, when I have well over 40. So, being able to create colors would be greatly beneficial.

Loomerly is so easy to use and the finished pdf looks so professional and slick! So worth the money!

They recently changed the maximum size for brick stitch patterns making the app nearly useless for me… I’m very sad and disappointed

Loomerly is exactly what I was looking for, a very easy to follow beading pattern maker. It helps you bring your idea to life, with sizes, colors and types of beads you want to use. Erasing errors is simply a press of the button, editing orientation and size of your design. You can draw anything or write names, etc. with ease. This is definitely a 5+ star program.

I use this app for pattern building on all my more complicated brick to fringe earrings and I recommend it to a lot of people. I will say that the word chart functionality could be better with one tweak. It doesn’t break apart the base line of the brick stitch from the rest, so when sharing patterns I gave to rewrite the breakdown to account for the two bead + line at where the fringe loops through. I also wish there was an option to create your own bead colors in addition to the library. Not all my beads fit with the brands selected. I like there is a library to search but it isn’t comprehensive enough to not have an option to create your own. There isn’t functionality to create patterns that show bugle beads or larger or different shape beads in these types of earrings, that would be an excellent feature in the future.

Loving this app. Been using other vector apps to design, but found this and its awesome that all the bead colors can be easily searched! Only big wish is if there was an option to incorporate different drop heights into the brick stitch patterns as I often transition from 1 to 2 or even more in the designs I make. Is there a way to add that? Please and thank you!

By far the best app for loom & peyote stitch and it just keeps getting better.
