Versions
Save a version whenever a design is worth keeping. Branch one into a new colorway and the original stays untouched, so trying an idea never costs you the one you already love.
Real beads
CraftCanvas counts the beads in your design by code and puts what the pattern needs on your Restock, in tubes at your store, before you sit down to make it.
