Hama pattern generator
This page is the same fuse bead pattern maker, set up for one search: a Hama pattern generator that makes a fuse bead chart from a photo. Choose Hama Midi, drop a picture you have the right to use, and read the preview before you buy beads. Colour matching runs in your browser. The photo is never uploaded.
The full PDF, row tracker and project files are free. No account or payment is needed. The tool is unofficial and is not affiliated with Hama, Perler, or Artkal. Those names are trademarks of their owners.

Make a Hama chart from a photo
- Open the maker and drop a PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF, or try the sample. Crop close to one subject on a simple background.
- Set the bead brand to Hama Midi. A new visit starts at 1 × 1 board of 29 and 10 colours. Saved settings in this browser are kept.
- If the outline disappears, add a board. If the chart looks speckled, leave dithering off. About 8–12 colours is enough for a first sort.
- Open the colour list, tick beads you already own, and download the full PDF. No account, email, or payment is required.
Hama codes are not translated into Perler or Artkal codes. If those are the beads you own, use the Perler pattern maker or switch the brand before you generate. Compare on-screen colours with the beads in your hand. The lists are community values, not a current catalogue.
Make a fuse bead chart from a photo →What stays free
The chart, edits, colour counts, shopping list, local row tracker, and full PDF stay free. The PDF keeps the original grid: one A4 page per board, symbols, colour codes, and bead counts, with no watermark. It is a chart, not a life-size peg overlay.
Tick off rows in the free tracker. Save a project file to keep a copy or continue on another device.
