The Home tab is your starting point. Bring a new chart into the app from a PDF, a photo or the gallery, jump back into a recent piece, and watch your progress update live.
The action buttons sit at the top of the screen. Below them is your current project card, then a row of recent projects. Tapping a project opens it straight into the markup screen.

The Current Project Card |
| Open the project [Screenshot: the current project card with cover image, dates, stats and icons] Your most recent piece is always front and centre. Tap the card and you are back to stitching in one move. |
Rename it
Tap the project title to give the piece a name you will recognise. |
Edit the dates
Tap the start or finished date to set it. Setting a finished date can optionally mark every remaining stitch complete, taking the piece to 100%. |
View statistics
The chart icon opens the Statistics screen for this project: progress, pace and history. |
Archive or delete
The zipper icon exports the project to a shareable backup file. The trash icon deletes it, after a confirmation, so a piece is never lost by accident. |

Recent Projects |
Up to five recent pieces
Your most recently opened projects, each on a compact card. Jump back into any of them without hunting through the full list. |
Same controls per card
Each recent card carries the same actions as the current one: open, rename, edit the start date, statistics, archive and delete. |

Total, completed and remaining stitches, plus estimated days and date to finish. The app does the maths for you. |
Last markup date
When you last marked a stitch on each project. Spot at a glance which pieces are active and which have gone quiet. |
