Hi Product Hunt — I’m the maker of FuseCanvas.
I’m building a browser workspace for turning a small pixel idea into a bead plan: draw or convert an image, adjust the palette, inspect the grid and color counts, then export a pattern.
Basic PNG, PDF and editable JSON exports are free, and you can start without an account. Optional Pro adds storage and advanced exports. The interface is available in English, Japanese, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
The Hello Kitty gallery demonstrates the editor and simulated 3D preview, not a physical build. Hello Kitty belongs to Sanrio; this is an unofficial fan-art example. Custom palette labels are not official bead-brand codes, and PDFs are reference grids rather than calibrated life-size templates.
I’d especially appreciate feedback on the path from editing to printing: what information would you want beside a pattern before making it?
Maker update: FuseCanvas now lets you create fuse bead patterns with real Python, directly in the browser.
I wanted to connect two creative workflows: drawing a pattern by hand and building one with code. They now share the same bead board.
What is new:
- Python loops, variables, lists, conditions and reusable functions
- 32 runnable examples and 6 guided exercises, with Pause, Step and Stop
- 2D editing, an orbitable 3D bead view and a simulated ironed-finish preview
- Palette management and counts by color
- 332 public patterns, with clear grids and basic PNG/PDF downloads
- English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese, including the instructional code comments
The interpreter loads only when Python is opened, runs on the user's device and is cached for future visits. You can start free without an account. There is also an optional Pro plan.
A small activity for a family or coding club: run a five-bead loop, change its length, add a color cycle, then use Step to explain each action.

I would love feedback from crafters and educators: what should I improve next, palette matching, printable instructions, or beginner coding activities?
