No sewing. Just a little patience.

Kinusaiga is the art of bringing pictures to life with fabric, tucked into grooves in a base board. Our tool helps with the planning, so you can enjoy the making.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT WONDER

Before you begin.

Is the pattern generator really free?+

Yes. Upload, edit and download without a subscription, payment or account. Generation can be temporarily paused when the available processing budget is reached; saved projects remain editable.

What makes a good photo?+

A clear subject, good contrast and a simple background are a helpful starting point. Busy scenes and tiny details need more simplification. Always inspect small pieces and sharp corners before making.

What is included in my download?+

Your making kit includes a color reference, groove pattern, numbered pattern, fabric cutting templates with allowance, and a fabric list. PDF supports A4 and US Letter with actual-size tiled pages.

Are my photos saved on your server?+

Photos are sent to the processing service temporarily and are not kept or used for training. Your editable project is saved locally in your browser. You can also download a .kinusaiga project file.

How do I make sure the print is the right size?+

Print the PDF at 100% or Actual size, with Fit to page disabled. Measure the 100 mm calibration ruler before cutting. Large patterns use numbered pages with overlap for assembly.
