New Hampshire SoftWare will shortly release Version2 of SymblCro.  This release will have two levels, Basic and Advanced.  Current owners of the Version1 will get a break on the cost of the upgrade.

The following samples produced by the new version, are either my own "designs" or made from 19th century patterns.

Unless noted otherwise, the new features are available in the Basic version as well as the advanced.

This Graph shows the block add operation as opposed to the spread add. Note that the spokes are more compact.

This chart of an early 19th Century pattern shows block placement of multiple stitches, as opposed to spread placement.  It also has labelling and darkened stitches, only available in the Advanced version. The darkened chains indicate that the dc is to be made into the chain stitch.

This doily (my own design) was created by a straight line edit of one segment which was then merged six times in a circular mode. Some of the dc's were changed to popcorns with the Replace Stitch command, available only in the Advanced version. The popcorns were made magenta by applying Change Color to all popcorns.

This is a revised version of my Crenelated SnowFlake. Note the straight rows in each section, produced by straight line editing. The graph has some long legged single and slip stitches showing where attachments are made to the basic doily. It also has arrows,labels, cut/attach symbols, stitch counts, and lightened stitches, available only in the Advanced version.

Warning: for illustration only. This motif was made in straight line mode, using the new Add Multiple Closed Blocks and Add Multiple Open Blocks commands. The top block was added with Straight copy and paste. Then I created am improbable motif and inserted it twice. SymblCro now allows me to move the center of a placed motif to fit correctly. I inserted slip stitches and changed their color with the change color of all (stitch name) command.
