What should I upload?

Use a clear subject photo or original illustration. You can also open one of the pictured templates directly in the editor.

Can I use a template without copying a prompt?

Yes. Choose a visual direction for generation, or prepare an existing template for printing without starting an AI task.

What stays linked to my reference?

The draft aims to retain the recognizable silhouette and key markings. Color cleanup may remove small details, so inspect the edited version.

Which controls change the output?

Generation uses the direction and project proportions. In the editor, palette count and cleanup change the actual pixels; paper settings control the real print.

What files can I get?

Cleaned PNG, vector-block SVG draft and browser print/save-as-PDF tiles are available. SVG is not a yarn-path or tufting-machine program.

How do I check the result?

Look for tiny shapes, narrow gaps and lost facial details at the intended rug size before tracing.

Does the preview replace physical checks?

No. Confirm yarn thickness, region widths and technique. Mirror only when appropriate for the side of the cloth you work from.

How does generation pricing work?

The editor can prepare a template without an AI task. Generating a new draft uses the model and credit cost displayed by the standard form.

Tufting Pattern Generator | FireRed Image Edit

What you can explore

Build a rug pattern draft with broad color areas from an original photo or illustration. The tufting pattern generator is intended for planning and tracing: flat regions and a clear silhouette matter more than a realistic photograph of yarn.

Prepare your reference

Choose one well-lit subject with a recognizable silhouette. Crop away clutter before uploading; tiny lettering, complex fur and intricate backgrounds are harder to turn into practical regions. You can also open an illustrated template directly in the print editor.

Create and compare

Select a direction and generate a draft, then open the print editor. Reduce the palette to two through eight colors and adjust small-region cleanup. Apply changes, check recognizable features and select the finished width and height in millimeters.

What you can download

Download the cleaned PNG or a vector-block SVG draft, or print/save a tiled PDF using the browser. Choose A4, A3, A5 or Letter, orientation, margins, overlap and optional mirroring. The project keeps its chosen physical size across multiple sheets.

Check the important details

Review narrow regions at the intended rug size and remove details that your yarn and technique cannot reproduce. Automatic cleanup can remove important facial markings; compare with the original. An attractive draft still needs a maker’s review before tufting.

Use the result in your project

Print at Actual size, disable Fit to page and measure the 50 mm calibration line. Assemble pages using their row/column labels and overlap, then confirm which side of the cloth you work from before mirroring. For monochrome patterns, see photo to scroll saw pattern.
