Mini Pattern Collection in Procreate: Halloween Theme

1. Intro: Hi. I'm Ma Favor. I'm a surface pattern designer and online teacher with over 100,000 students worldwide. In this class, I'm going to teach you how to create a Halloween themed mini pattern collection Impro crate. We will explore how to find its ram from a specific theme and how to work with seasonal colors to make your mini collections look cohesive. I will guide you step by step on how to create a pattern from scratch in Procreate and how to use pattern layout templates to make the entire process more fun, easy, and seamless. In this class, I'm using my free power pack Procrate brush set featuring 20 on my favorite procrate brushes, including two pattern layout templates that I will show you how to use during the lessons. Using the Power pack is optional, but I highly recommend it to be able to follow along and get the most out of the learning experience. This is a fun, creative class, perfect for anyone looking to practice designing pattern collections around a specific theme. You will need a basic understanding of Procreate and have created at least a few patterns before. If you never made a pattern in Procreate, I would recommend checking out my class on creating an editable pattern with color variations before diving into this one. I will link to that class in the description. And if you're eager to dive deeper into pattern design, be sure to check out Pan Rebels, my membership program. In Patter Rebels, you will get access to monthly classes, design resources, like Procrit brushes, color palettes, MCPs, and pattern layout templates. Plus, we have monthly design challenges, feedback sessions, and KNA opportunities, where you can ask me anything about design or running a creative business. You can learn more at patter rebels.com. So with all of that said, let's get started and bring your Halloween Mini pattern collection to life. 2. Your Project: This class project, you will create your own Halloween themed mini pattern collection I Procrate. Your collection will include at least three patterns, inspired by the Halloween theme and using a seasonal palette. Feel free to use my Power Pack Procrate brush set to make the process easier or work with your own brushes. Once you completed your mini collection, share your patterns in the project gallery. I can wait to see what you create. 3. Downloads and Resources: This class, you will have access to my free Power pack Procreate brush set, which includes 20 of my favorite brushes designed to streamline your pattern making process. The set also includes two pattern layout templates that we will use during the class to make designing your min collections more efficient and enjoyable. While using the Power PAC is optional, I highly recommend it for the best learning experience. To download the brush set, you can download the PDF from the project and Resources section and tap the link to the Power Pack brush set, or you can go directly to Maver com Power PAC. Here, you will need to sign up with your name and your e mail address and tap download your freebie and then your freebie will be sent to your inbox. In the PDF, you will also find the link to download my Halloween color palette, if you want to use the same colors as me. And throughout the class, I'm using my Halloween Pinterest board as inspiration. I made this board specifically for you, my students in this class, and you can feel free to stick to just using this premate board, or if you want to take it a step further, you can gather more inspiration on Pinterest for yourself. The link to the Pinterest board is also in the PDF that you can download here in class. If you're interested in downloading and using the Procreate mockups that I'm showing you quickly here in this class, you can subscribe to my Patter Rebels membership. And the All Axis membership plan. And that will bring you these five stunning Halloween themed procreate mockups. It's not a must at all to use these mockups, but I just wanted to show you them and let you know how to get your hands on them. So these are exclusive for my Palos members in the All Axis membership plan. 4. Finding Inspiration: The very first thing that we will do in this class is to find inspiration for our mini pattern collections. We are going to create three patterns. One, a little bit more bicy, which is the hero pattern, a second one that is called the secondary pattern, which is like medium bisi and then the blender pattern, which is the simplest one. To find inspiration, I am using Pinterest, and I've created a board that's called Halloween, and you will find the link to my pinterest board here in the class. You can use my inspiration images that I've gathered here or you can find your own. I usually use Pinterest, I think is the most simple way to access inspiration. Here, what I want to decide is, what do I want my patterns to include? What type of motifs, and also get inspiration for the colors. In this class, I've included downloadable color palette, so you can use the same colors as me. But I will show you here as well. In the next lesson, how I gather my color palette, how I find the inspiration for the colors. So Halloween theme is, I would say, pretty simple, we have the pumpkins, we have the ghost. You have the which hats, the cats, the skeleton, the motives of Halloween are pretty clear. You can, of course, move away from that, but at the same time, if you want to try to excel your Halloween pattern collections in any way or make any money of them, people usually want the motives that they are used to within that holiday theme. For Halloween, You could go for pumpkins or skeletons. You could go for like a hero pattern with a mix of different motifs. We won't do that in this class, because I want to show you how simple it can be to create a minute pattern collection. So I will create one motif in the hero pattern, but with several different colors instead of several different motives. And I'm going for the most simple motif that I can think of to draw, and that is a pumpkin. There's a bunch of different pumpkin inspirations. You have the one with like faces, cut of faces, the one with patterns on them, and just a simple pumpkin. So I am drawing pumpkins and I want something else that is more simple for the blender pattern. You could go for maybe stripes with one pattern, and Then I could go for maybe moons or stars for the blender print. So just scroll through here and see where you can find and see what you want to draw in your patterns, what type of motifs, but I'm going for pumpkins and stripes and I think stars. So let's move on to the next lesson where I will show you how I quickly sketch up the full mini collection. 5. Sketching the Collection: So we are back in Procreate, and now we will sketch our collection, the rough idea of our collection. You can use any type of canvas, any size. I am going to use, we can create a new one. I usually just go for a square canvas, as most of my patterns are created in a square format, you can go for any format that you want to, and I usually use the SRGB color profile that is below display P three. Then I tap create and here I have my cavas. The first thing that I want to do is to bring up Pinterest. I will tap the three little dots and tat split view and then tap pinterest, and I like to have that window to the left. I will drag that to the left. And here I have the inspiration. You can choose in which order you want to do this. I will sum out so that I can see my full square here. And I've included a color palette for you to use. I've taken those colors from inspirational images like this. I will show you how to do that, but when we create this inspirational kind of sketching board, I will use the colors in my Halloween color palette because I've already chosen those ones. But I will show you how I did that. So you can decide if you want to start with finding the colors. It depends on how you like to work, or if you want to start with sketching out your motifs. I am really color driven, so I will start with the colors. I think. You can use any brush here. Right now, my favorites are the dry inker and the dry acrylic, and let's just use the dry acrylic and try out some different colors here to get some inspiration. You can bring out the color panel like this. What I would do then is that I would just go for an image. I see a lot of purple and orange, black, white. You can also go for a pinkish color palette. There's some blues and some greens as well, but there are a few colors that are more common for Halloween, and I would say that orange is definitely one of those. Then I would go to fetch a color that is similar to what I see here. Bring up that, for example, and let's add the colors on this side. So we'll have a larger brush, and then I can just draw some different orange colors here. I might want to try things out and go for a little bit darker. So like orange and brown and a little bit lighter, oops. Then I just try things out and see what I like. I would definitely like some darker, almost black color, but I'm not sure that I want completely black. I might want a softer. It might be like really dark browns then, that might bring my pattern a softer look. There's some pink here. I like the pink, and I also like to go towards the purple. Let's just try a little bit of purple. Maybe like a dusty purple. That might look cool, and maybe a little bit like dustier, and it can go for a little bit darker, something like that. Then I would like to go for the pink, like the pink way as well, and that seems like it's a little bit of peachy pink. Maybe like that, and maybe ale bit more red in that, brighter. Lighter. And I could also go for ops. I could also go for more like pinkish pink if I go over here. There maybe dustier. And I just try out some colors so that I get a bunch of different colors. I might want to try out some different orange colors as well. If I go for a little bit more like yellow orange, Mary, brighter, maybe some kind of cream, white dish, color, like that, even more bright, and maybe something that it's a little bit more red. Okay, so now I have collected with just a few images and scrolling through my board here. I've gathered some colors. And the next step is to try to sketch my patterns, as I imagine that my patterns should look. And then I can try out these colors on the sketches. So I have my colors here. I can just rename that layer, tap the layer, tap rename, and rename it to color. And I can bring them down a little bit in size, so I will tap to transform to and bring the colors down a little bit like this so that I can draw the sketch on my patterns over here. I have the colors in my Halloween color palette. I will show you first how I will do when I select colors like this, and then I will show you which colors I will choose from my premade palette. So now it's time to sketch our patterns. I will sketch with. I think that I don't want to sketch with like a pencil brush for this, but I will go ahead and use the dry acrylic to sketch right away in color. What I could do with a perfect pencil is just to create a square. I could draw square. That is like that, and then I can I can choose if I want it to be perfectly square shaped by tapping and holding to do the quick shape, or I could just go ahead and draw a square like this. Really rough, and it really doesn't matter because this is just me trying out my ideas. So I want three patterns. These are my three pattern tiles. And oh, I put them on the color layer. But that's fine. Doesn't matter, it's just a sketch. Then I will tap the plus to add a new layer, and now I can try to just use the dry acrylic and right away, sketch by color. So what I would do here is to probably choose a background. I'm thinking that this would be my hero pattern and my secondary and my blender print. So I would start with choosing a background color. It could be white. But for me, personally, Halloween is supposed to be a little bit more color than that. So I want a different background color. I would try to go for the brown one. So if I would use these colors, that is how I would do it. And I would just draw a square like this. Yes, on top of my sketch square. So maybe it's pointless to create the sketching pencil square first, but I don't really care because this is a sketch, and I'm just doing it as I feel like, like how my creative process works, and you should do what you feel like in your creative process. So then I have a background that is orange. Then I would go ahead and think, maybe I want my second background to be white then or like a cream white, and then we will go for that. You could start with the backgrounds and see how the colors would fit in. Then I could go I could go for a pink background maybe here. That would look good. But I'm also a little bit curious about using a darker background like the darker brown one. And I can tap and feel to make that color. Now I will tap into my color palette because I have my pre made palette that I really like to use. So I will use my darker brown hair because I think it's even. Yeah, that's almost more black. You can see now that it works kind of the same. Here I have my color inspiration, and here I have my premade color palette. You could easily just save these to a premade color palette and then choose from these colors. Now as I have my premade palette, I will move away from my colors that we've chosen from the inspiration board, because I just wanted to show you how you can choose your own colors. And now I will use my palette instead. I would drag this one over here and start to use it. I could try maybe this little brighter orange. For that background, it's a little bit more like soft, and then I have my cream white over here, and I will use that one. Let's try this out. I think it's easier to have the background backgrounds on one layer. If you want to change the colors of the backgrounds later on, and then I can tap the plast at a new layer and here I can just write like motifs or something. So I don't care that much about separating the layers when it comes to sketching, except having the background on one color because that will make it easier to change the background when I sketch out my ideas. With the dry acrylic brush, I will start to sketch my ideas, and I have this idea about pumpkins that I really want to try out and I want to just draw a simple type of pumpkin. I don't want anything extra. I don't think that I want any face on the pumpkin, cut out face or something like that. But I will just try to find a pumpkin. Here I have a pumpkin, and I can also just draw from my imagination. I will som in on the hero pattern, which is where I can imagine having the pumpkins. Then I want to try different colors. I would maybe like a pink pumpkin. Let me just see how this. That's a pretty big brush, but I think It might work. So I'm using 7% in brush size with a dry acrylic brush. And now I will actually just kind of sketch my idea out. So I'm thinking that I want pumpkins in different colors. I don't know if I want them twisted around like a toast pattern or in one direction, but that might just sort itself out when we are creating the pattern later on. So Right now I'm just trying out the colors and also trying out my idea with the pumpkins. So I might want to mix it up with like a brownish pumpkin. And I'm thinking that I want to reuse the colors that I have a few pumpkins of each color. Maybe let's try out this base. That didn't look That good, maybe, but it's a little bit pale. Let's just tap and fill. Tap and drag the other beach, too that, No, that didn't look good. Let's try out the darker brown, and that looked good. And I will tap color drop. Okay, I really like the combination of these and maybe these peach colors. So as I'm sketching my motives, I'm also trying out the colors as you can see. You can change this later on as well. Okay, so that looks good. I will actually add on top with ttes if I would like to change the color of the pumpkins later on. With a smaller brush. I will just go down in brush size to maybe two or 1%. I want to try to use a darker like maybe this brown black color and create these ops, that was really big. Details. I don't like this brush for the details. I might just want to use the perfect pencil or something like that from the power pack brush set and a little bit larger in size. And yeah, that looks better. So I'm imagining colorful pattern with some details in black or almost black, the darkest color in my color palette. And something like that. As you can see, it's a really rough sketch, and the point of that is to move along to not get stuck here in the process, but just get my ideas out so that I can start to draw my pattern. This looks a little bit empty, and I might need let's go for the dry acrylic again. I might need to fill the pattern up with something. Let's try the Dry acrylic and a larger brush size 3%. Not that pink color. Let's try the beige color. And I will just add a few like filler elements like dots. Dots are what comes closest to me at this moment. I will just add some filler elements here, and that instantly made me feel like the pattern popped a little bit more, made it more interesting. Now we have sketched a pumpkin pattern. I'm pretty happy with that. I think it can be really cute. And now what I want to do is I think I want to do some stripes on this one, and stars on that one. I don't need my inspirational mood board for that. So I would just go ahead and let's go for the stars first. Sometimes it's easier to go for the most simple pattern to figure out the medium complex pattern, the secondary pattern over there. So let's go for stars. I could use the dry acrylic again and try to have draw stars like this. That might look good. I could also try that color. So now I'm figuring out the color before I decide the motif. I think I want a softer look, so maybe the soft page or this one. I will just go ahead and tap the selection tool and tap to drag to select all of these, and then I will tap the transform tool and pull them out so that I can draw my final Stormo tees and let me just use this base color. I'm not sure if that is what I want to use later on, but I'm thinking of, like, a more airy pattern with stars. The important thing here is that I myself know my idea. So it's a little bit rough, maybe, but I know what I'm thinking here, just a simple blackish pattern with simple stars in a airy balance. Okay, so next, I want to draw this pattern and it's supposed to be stripes. I want more colors than in the blender print. This is the blender print, hero print a secondary print, but I don't want as many colors as in the hero print. I don't think at least. So let me just try things out. I think pink would look good. And here I'm just thinking of drawing, you know, some lines. So strokes so that it's a simple stripes pattern. Maybe some kind of base there as well. I'm not completely sure of which colors I want to use. I want to try out the colors. Maybe I want to tap and fill and drag the colors. I think that looked better, actually. I don't want too many colors, so maybe that is good for now. This is a very simple sketch over my mini pattern collection, and now we will move on to create pattern by pattern and make them match each other while we are creating them. 6. Make a Pattern Template: Now when we have created our sketch, we tried out the colors. It's time to start with creating the first pattern. You can start with any pattern that you want to for me. In this collection, I want to start with the hero pattern because that feels the most fun for me. That is what I will start with. First, I will just save this image to my camera role so that I can use it in the reference window. I will tap the actions panel and I will tap share JPEG and save image. Then I can head back to gallery and here I want to tap the plus to add a new canvas. I have my pre made canvases here, but I will create a new one with you altogether. I usually use my standard size is 3,000 in width and 3,000 in height and 300 DPI. Your maximum amount of layers will be a little bit different depending on your iPad storage. I can create as many as 204 layers, but I don't need that many. You don't need that many either. Then I will tap color profile, and what I usually use is the first S RGB color profile underneath the display P three. Then I tap create. The very first thing that we will do in this class is to create a pattern template that we can reuse over and over again, and I will show you how to do that. So I will tap into the layers panel. I can take my pre made color palette or any color that you want to. And then I will just tap the layer, and with a color selected, any type of color, you will just tap fill layer, then you'll tap plus in the layers panel, tad a new layer. I usually choose another color. It's not a must, but it's easier to keep track of your layers. If you choose different colors, and then I will tap plus again to add a new layer and a different color fill layer. Tap the plast that new layer and a different color and fill layer. Now we have four layers with different colors. The colors are just to keep track of the layers. Then I will shut down my color panel, and I can tap the first layer, tap the transform tool, and then I will tap in the top left corner node. Make sure that I have the chain symbol tapped in, and I will type in one and 500. That will bring me half of the size of the Canvas, and my first square will be placed at the very top left corner. Then I will tap the next layer, I will tap the transform tool and tap the top right corner node, the little blue point there. Make sure I have the chain symbol tapped in and type in 1,500. Then I will tap the next layer. I might need to sum out a bit. Here, it's really important that you don't move your screen like notch your screen because then you will mess up this pattern template. You can start sued out. Maybe that's better, so you don't need to move your layers. Then I will tap in the bottom left corner node. Make sure I have the chain symbol tapped in and type in 1,500. Then I will tap the next layer, tap the transform tool, tap in the bottom right quarter node, and type in 1,500. Now I have four smaller squares, and they are perfectly placed to the edges of the Canvas. There's no gaps in between. What I do next is that I tap any layer that you want to, but I will start with the top here, and then I will tap select that layer. I will tap Save and load and the plus, and I have saved this selection to selection one. I will tap the layers panel again, the next layer beneath, select that layer, save and load, tap to plus, and you have saved this square as selection two. I'll tap the next layer, select, save and load, tap to plus, and you have selection three. The next layer, select, save load, tap to plus, and now you have selection four. Now I have actually saved all of these four layers. In different selections. I don't need these anymore, but if you want to, you can just merge them together, and you can use this as your pattern template guide file, which will make all of your patterns perfect without any white lines in the future. Just a little note here. If you would get white lines, I would highly recommend to check out my class about leveling up your pattern design in Procreate, because I have a lot of tips and tricks there about not getting white lines in your patterns in Procreate. Now we have created the pattern template, and I will just tap gallery. You can rename this to pattern template. We can use this for all of the patterns in this class. 7. Hero Pattern Sketching: It's time to create our first pattern, and I will start with the pumpkin pattern. First, I will just select the pattern template that we created in the last lesson in the previous lesson. If you skip that lesson, make sure to move back to that one because otherwise you won't be able to follow along when we create the actually repeated pattern. I'll tap and select the pattern template and then I will tap duplicate, and I will tap in 21 of these. I will always say one as the original. I can just rename this to Pumpkin pattern, for example, and then I will tap in to that. I can delete this first layer, swipe the right on that one and tap clear. Now I can start to sketch my hero pattern, which is the busiest pattern in our mini collection, the one with the pumpkins. So the way that we will create this pattern, I will just drag out my color panel here here because I think it's convenient to have it on my Canvas or on my artboard here. What I want to do to create this pattern is to use a pattern layout, which is super fun. If you never created a pattern with a pattern layout before, I really recommend to do it, and you can just follow my lead. I have two pattern layouts here. It's stamp brushes in Procreate that I've created, and it's the bold flowers and the toast rectangles. These ones are for free in the Power Pack. If you're interested in getting more pattern layouts, I have my pattern toolkit, which includes 25 pan layouts, and also in my membership, Pan bles you will get one new panel layout template every month. So you can check that out. You'll find all of the links to that hearing class. But now let's get started with this, and what I want to do is that I want to use the bold flowers pattern layouts. That's at the bottom here in the power pack. You can use any color. I usually go for black when I create the layout layers, and I choose black and I usually go for around 60%. So that way, you will be able to place the pattern layout. On your Canvas, and it won't be falling off that ed. Because if it's falling off the edge like this, it won't work. So you will just want to place it within your Canvas with one stamp like that, and then you will tap the transform tool and tap it to Canvas. Tap your layers panel, you can tap layer one and rename that to layout. Now we know that we have our layout on this layer. The next thing that I want to do before I sketch my pattern is to tap the n on that layer. I will drag down my opacity. I usually go for around 15% to be able to draw on top, but still that you can see it on screen. But you can go even lower, of course. It's just hard for you to see it on screen if I go lower than around 15 or 20%. That is the layout layer, and now it's time to start to sketch our hero pattern, our pumpkin pattern. What I do then is to tap the plus to add a new layer, and now I will just rename this to sketch right away. To be honest, when I'm creating my own patterns for myself, I don't usually name all of the layers all of the time. It's mostly when I need to know when I need to keep track of where the different things are in my design. But when I create classes, I usually name the layers, so that you will be able to follow along, so don't feel forced to name the layers if you don't feel like it. But I am on the sketch layer. And here, I will use. Let's just use another color. I will use this darker brown color to sketch with. And in the power pack, I have a sketch pencil that's called perfect pencil that I really like. So I will use that one. And let's see which size. I want a rather big size here because I'm creating like a bowler sketch. So I think that I want around 20 or 30%. I have 29% now. Let's just try that out. The next thing that we can do now is to bring out our sketch where we created our mini collections. I will tap the actions panel tap Canvas, tap reference, image, import image, and I will tap my sketch. I have my color palette. If you downloaded my color palette, you have the same as me, but you can also use your own, of course, and then I have my reference here. I will zoom in on my pumpkin pattern. It won't look exactly like this and that's completely fine. It's just a reference, just to get my ideas down that I did this rough sketch, and now I want to create actual pattern on this cavas. What I do then is to sketch out the pumpkins. And for this pan layout, it's made from the beginning. It's called bold flowers. From the beginning, it's made so that you will create a flower and leaves on these lines. You can create all sorts of flowers and all sorts of leaves, of course. But you can also use this layout for any type of motif, and the point of it is that if you follow the layout approximately, you don't need to follow it completely, but if you follow it as a guide, you will get a well balanced and really, really nice looking pattern. Okay. Let's get started. I will sketch my pumpkins. I think that I want them can in one direction, but they can be a little bit tilted, just like they are here. I will start with just drawing a pumpkin in one of these. I'm not going to use the lines to create leaves on those. I will probably go I want to go rather big in the circles here. Something like that, maybe. This is also a rough sketch. I'm just trying things out and seeing what shape of the pumpkins that I want. We might need to move around some of the pumpkins later on because it's just to guide the pattern layouts. It's not your finished design and the finished placement of your elements, but it will go much quicker when we have a guy like this. As you can see, I'm just moving through and creating different sizes of pumpkins like this. As you can see, there are different numbers on the layout, which means that it's supposed to be so that you could copy this motive on this one, and then you will get a nice flow in the pattern. You could choose to copy the full motif. In that case, I would recommend to draw the biggest one first, and then you can copy that one and make it smaller because we don't want to enlarge our drawings that much in procreate because then we lose resolution. But you could also use this layout. As we will do now, we will draw each motive. By itself separately. So each pumpkin will be separate and different from each other a little bit different. It's still the same kind of feeling. But I will reuse the colors. So at the one placement of the pumpkin, I will use one color. Let's say the darker brown, and then I will use the darker brown in the one placement up here as well. Okay, let's just continue. I'm drawing the pumpkins. I don't know what happened with the opacity there. I want 100% opacity. I'm drawing the pumpkins that are within the canvas. Not the ones that are cut off. We need to flip the pattern around to draw those ones. Like this, and then we have one smaller over here. I have some dots there, but I won't draw in the dots in the sketch. The dots are filler elements, and I would use those to fill in empty space. I can already see that this might be an issue here that I have so much empty space, and I might want to move that pumpkin. But I will create a full sketch and then check out my patent sketch, the full patent sketch before I choose to move any motifs. The next thing that we will do is to add a layer. I will tap the plus in the layers panel, tap the layer, tap, rename, and rename this to background, and then I will tap and drag it beneath my layout layer. This background is orange, but in the sketch, I will just use a white color. You can use the cream white in the color palette or just a white color. And I will tap the layer and tap feel layer. The important thing is that it's just a sketch, and I want the light background to be able to see everything in the sketch easily. The next step is to swipe to the right on all of these layers and tap group. Then I want to select the full group. I will tap the group, tap the selections tool. If you get an error message that looks like this or something similar, you will just tap cancel, and then you need to move back into your layers panel, tap one of the layers, tap the selection tool and make sure that you don't have color fill checked in. It's also good to have free hand checked in. So no color fill but free hand, and then you should be able to select a full group. If you still can select the full group, you will just swipe to the right on all of the layers in the group and tap the selections tool, and that works exactly the same. But we will tap the group, tap the selections tool. Then I will tap Save and load, and as you remember, we saved four different selections, four different squares in our last lesson. What I will do is just to tap, you can tap any of them. You don't need to start with one. I will just do that now. But you can start with the number four as well, but I will start with number one. Then I will tap the transform tool, I will tap flip vertical and flip horizontal. Doesn't matter in which order you flip horizontal or vertical, just one time on each. Then I can tap the selections tool to deselect. I will tap it again to select, save and load selection two. Tap to transform to flip vertical and flip persontal. Then I will tap the selection tool again to deselect and tap the selections to save and load selection three, tap to transform to flip vertical and flip persontal. Then I will tap this selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select Save and load selection four, tap the transform to, flip vertical and flip persontal. Then I want to get my pattern in the same direction as I drew it in. You can flip the Canvas, but I usually tap the transform to and tap rotate 45 degrees four times, which will get me back in my original direction. The next thing that I want to do is to tap the sketch layer. Use the same color, which one did I sketch with, this brown. And with a perfect pencil, I will draw this pumpkin. Like that. Then I have one more over here. Let me just flip the cavas again and this time, I will tap the group, tap this selections tool, and now I can tap let's just tap selection four this time. I will tap the transform tool. Now, I just want to flip in the edges. I will tap the transform to just flip horizontal. Tap this selections tool. To deselect, tap it again to select, selection three, tap the transform tool and Flate parsontal. Tap the selection tool again to de select and tap it to select. Selection two, tap the transform tool, flap prizontal, tap the selection tool to deselect and tap the transform tool again, or selection tool again to select, Save and load, selection one, tap the transform to the flp persontal. Then I can tap the transform tool again and Flate pazontal, to get it back in the original direction. Then I will tap the sketch layer, my perfect pencil, and here I will draw the last pumpkin. Okay, so now this is finished, the sketch, and I want to try it out. So what I would do then is to tap the layers panel, turn off the layout layer. And I can swipe down with three fingers tap copy all, swipe down with three fingers tap paste, and here I have a flattened image. You can try out the pattern in Procreate, which I can show you in a minute. But I also wanted to show you the pattern tester on my website, which is a free tool. It's my fffab.com slash Pattern tester. And you can tap and drag your flattened image into the patent tester, swipe away procreate, and here you can see how your pattern is repeated. As far as I can see, we only have one issue and it's this little part here because everything else looks pretty balanced. So what I would do is to just make sure that we don't have that much space, or actually, we have a little bit space there and a little bit space there. So I would just hit back into Procreate. And if you want to try it out in Procreate instead, I would swipe the right to duplicate this layer so that I have four copies, and then I will tap the transform, tap in the top left corner node, type in 1500 pixels. And tap the next layer, tap in the top right corner node, and type in 1,500 pixels. Then I will tap the next layer, tap in the bottom left corner node, swim out a bit, which is here, type in 1,500 pixels. And then I will tap the next layer, tap in the bottom right corner node, and 1,500 pixels. And here you have your pattern repeated in Procreate as well. So here we can also see that we have, let's just create a new layer that I can draw on or I can just draw on this one to show you We have a little bit of issue over here, is too much space, and that's that one as well, and then we have a little bit too much space here. So just move the pumpkins around in the sketch. So delete that layer. This one was a pretty easy one to see here in the pattern. I will tap the sketch layer, tap the selection tool, and I will just move the selection around one of the pumpkins that have a lot of space, and then I will tap the transform tool, make sure that I don't have snapping and magnetics turned on here in the settings. Then I can just move it a little bit. As you can see, it already looks more balanced. That was one of them, and where do we have the other one? It feels like it might be over here somewhere. I might need to flip the pattern around. But first, I will tap this selection tool and I can actually go in and select some of these pumpkins and maybe I just want to twist them a little bit because I see that many of them are in the exactly the same direction. I could just select them, tap the transform tool, and rotate them a little to make the pattern a little bit more fun and a little bit more dynamic. I think that Let's see. Here we have a lot of space. I'm not sure if I can just move that down if that will solve the full problem, but let's just do it. We will see what happens. I'm moving that one down. I might twist it a little bit, and now we have a little better space in between there. So Let's just try out the pattern again quickly, so I will swipe down with three fingers, tap copy all, swipe down with three fingers and tap paste, tap three letter dots, split view, tap Safari, and then I would tap and drag my new flatten image. This looks much better to me. I still have a little bit of space over here. I might want to flip the pattern around a little bit to be able to move this large pumpkin this way and maybe this small pumpkin upwards. L et's do that. And what I do then is just to delete the flatten image, tap the group again. So, this is a little bit of work as you feel, probably feel when you do this. But if you get the sketch right, your pattern will be right from the start. So it's easier to get a good sketch from the start, and then the pattern will just fall into place. I'll tap the group, tap the selections tool, save and load, selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vert coun fl persontal. Tap the selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select, save and load selection three, tap the transform to flip vertical fl horizontal. Then I'll tap the selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select selection two, tap to transform to flip vertcn fl persontal. Tap the selections tool again to select it. Tap save and load, selection one, tap the transform tool flip compli person tool. Then I will tap the transform tool and tap rotate 45 degrees four times. Here we can see if I can move my pumpkin. It's this space over here, so I can actually probably move that one. I will select around this one and move it up here. I can rotate it a little bit if I want to, and that might just be enough. I could also move this smaller one, a little bit upwards, like that, and then you can move them around until you feel that it probably looks balanced and good. Okay, I'm feeling that I'm happy with this. It depends on how you want your pattern to look, more symmetrical or more like imperfect. I'm moving that one up there as well and twisting it around. Now I feel that I'm happy with this sketch and it's time to move on to make the actual pattern. 8. Hero Pattern: Make the Pattern: We are finished with our sketch of the pumpkin pattern, and now it's time to draw the actual pattern to make it a finished pattern. So we have our sketch here, and the first thing that I will do is just to tap the on the sketch layer, and I will drag down the opacity so that I can draw on top of my sketch. So I have the opacity to around 14%. The next thing that I will do is to change the color of the background because now I want the orange color of the background so that I can choose the colors of the pumpkins. So I would go for this orange. I'll try that out. Remember, you can always change colors later on. So you can just try it out and see if you like what I planned over here or what you planned in your paa sketch, or if you want to change something later on with the colors. I'll tap the layer when I selected a color and tap f layer. And now I have my orange background and I have my sketch layer on top. The layout layer is here as well. As you can see, I've moved around some pumpkins to make the pattern balanced. And that is exactly how we are using pattern layouts. We use the mas gits and depending on the motives that we're drawing and how our pattern looks. We might need to change a little bit with the balance, moving our motives around, but at the same time, it's much quicker to start with a layout. Okay. But now we don't need a layout anymore, so we'll just uncheck the visibility of that. Then I have my group here, within my group, and I can choose if I want to draw beneath or on top of my sketch layer. For this pattern, I will draw on top of my sketch layers. I will tap the plus tatnu layer, and here I want to use one layer per color. So let's start with one color of the pumpkins. We could, for example, start with let's choose a color. We could start with the More orange color or the brown. Let's call that layer. Should we call it orange, dark orange. We can call it. Or whatever. But I'm just separating the colors in layers now when we start to draw, so we have the dark orange. Now what we want to use the layout layer for is to understand which of the pumpkins will be in the same color. But for now, we're just using one of them, or we're just starting with one of them. So I'm starting with this one. It's named number five, and then I can see quickly that the one at the edge is also named number five. This one and this one will be the same color, the dark orange. I'll turn off the layout layer again, but we will tap on and off this while we choose the colors of the pumpkins. I will draw with the dry inchor for this. I really like the texture of that brush at the moment. I have my favorite brushes in different moments, different patterns, different periods. Right now, I really like the dry inchor. So I'm using the dark orange and the dry inker. And now it's time to draw the pumpkins. So I want 100% in opacity, and let's just try out our size. So let's try 5%. This was the number five oops. I'm on the wrong layer. I guess, no, I have the wrong color. I want a dark orange, and that is too small brush for my preference. So around 20%, and that's much better. I like this like chunky look of the pumpkins. So I want to draw them in larger brush size. So then I know that this and this is supposed to be dark orange. What I will do first is to create the different colors. So here you can see I have number two, number two. So these two are supposed to be in the same color. Then I have one, one, and three, and maybe there is number three. But let's just start with the one over there. So we could go for let's try out this peachy color, and I will add a new layer in the layers panel and rename that to Peach. And with the dry inchor, I said, I want to do it number one to be peach. So just turn off the visibility of a layered layer. And then I will draw the number one here. Impeach. As you can see, it's this really nice texture of this brush that I love. So you can choose like the shape you want of the pumpkin. Maybe you want more square or more round. You can do as you wish here. So turn on the layout layer again, and that was number one. So you can om out a bit and see that that was number one. So we will wait with that. So let's move on to number two. And number two could be let's do it the brown. The brown. We only have one brown. Yeah. Brown. I'm thinking this brown maybe or that one. Maybe this one. I had the really dark one there, but I'm not sure if that will make too much contrast towards the other colors. Let's just use that and we had the layout two and two. These two are supposed to be brown. I will draw those on the brown layers, in a bit. I'm a fast drawer and a fast creator, but you can of course create a complicated patterns as you wish and be as detailed as you wish here. It's all a matter of your style. I really like the simple style and I really enjoy to create a fast pace. Then I have two of the brown ones and I have one over here that isn't cut off from the edge. Let me just check the number of that one is number three. We do have number five, Let me just tap and drag the layout above everything else. This one will be number five, and let's zoom out. That one will be three. And here's a four. We only have 14, I think. We have two number three. Let's add a new layer on top of the brown, turn off the visibility of the layout layer, and here I will use pink. So I am going for this like, medium colored pink. And with the dry anchor, ooming in, what was the name of the three and three? Yeah, there. So I would do this pumpkin now, like that. Maybe a little bit more in this direction. I really really enjoy the texture of this brush. And then that one was number three, the pink one. So now I've drawn all of these. And what I would do now is to add the little things there, what's it called? No, these parts and these parts. I'm not sure if I want the lines on the pumpkins to be black, but or almost black like the dark brownish. But I will try to do these ones in black. Now you have a choice. You can choose to create one of these parts for each pumpkin on a separate layer or all of them on one layer. To save layers here, I don't need to save layers on my iPad, but if you need to save layers, I will try to as much as possible, keep the same colors on the same layers. If you don't need to save layers, it might be simpler to move around umatves, if you need to do that, if you draw all of the parts that are supposed to be for one pumpkin on a separate layer and then group them together. But I will do it like this because I want to show you how I would do if I want to save layers. So I'll tap the plast at aw layer, and I will rename this to. It's not black, but I will write black, and it's this dark brown. I will try that one. And now, I can choose if I want to use the same brush. Let's try that out and maybe below all of the pumpkins. Let's try that out, and we can draw like a boxy shape like that. Maybe take down the brush size. I have 5% now so that I can get a little bit of more boxy shapes. Yes, I think that that might look really nice. So I'm just drawing all of these black parts. And if you are annoyed by the black parts shining through, especially on the lighter colors. You could just choose the eraser tool, the power pack, and for example, the monoline brush, and then you could go in and erase what's below here so that it's not shining through. Oops. So that's a little detailed choice to make, but as the what's it called the brush that we're using the dry inker, as it's a little bit see through. It might look better if we erase the black parts beneath the colored layers. I'm doing this quickly. You can do it more detail if you want to. I just wanted to show you how to do that. So I think we've done that on all of the pumpkins now. And now it's time to add other details. Let's start with the pink layer. I will tap the plaster add a new layer, and I will rename this to text. And then I can just swipe it right on those and tap group, and then I can rename the group to pink. Pink. So I know it's the pink pumpkin. On the text layer or what you want to call it, I would go for the darker color of the pink, and I'm on top of the pink pumpkin, so it's this one. And then I would draw some lines. On this one. This is the look that I'm after. Now I will do that on all of these. I will tap the brown layer, tap the plus. I will tap rename texture, swipe to the right on both of those tap group, and rename the group to brown. On the texture layer, I will go for which brown did I had that one? I will try this this one, a little bit darker with a perfect pencil, and it's on these ones, and that looks great with the color. Now we'll just add some lines. To add a little bit more interest to the pattern. And something more happening. I want this kind of hand drawn and a little bit more rough look, so I do these lines rather quickly. Next, I will tap the peach layer, tap the plus to the new layer, rename to take, and then I will swipe the right on both of those, tap group, tap the group, rename, and right pitch. Then I will tap the texture layer and choose the darker peach color. Then I would just draw these lines. Then we have one left, tap the dark orange layer, tap the plasta that in your layer, renamed to texture, swipe the right on both layers, tap the group, rename the dark orange, and on the texture layer, I have that one, so I might work good with that one. Then I would add those details. So what I meant previously with if you want to add the black parts with these groups, it might be easier to move around the pumpkins, because if I would tap this group now and tap the transform to, I would just move around this and not the black part. If I would want to add the black parts, let's just turn off the visibility of that layer and tap the text layer, tap the plus, I could just add that I'm on the dark orange within the group on a separate layer. Beneath orange and within the group. And here you could move your whole pumpkin. But as I wanted to show you how to save layers, I will delete that one, turn on the black layer and keep all of my black parts or very dark brown parts on my layer. Okay, now we've finished this part of the pattern, and it's time to flip it around. I'll tap the whole group up here, and I will tap the transformed tool. Order selection tool, and then I will tap Save and load selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertical, flip persontal. I will tap the selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select, tap selection three and save load, tap the transform tool, flip vertical flip persontal. Then I will tap this selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select Save load selection two. Tap to transform to flip vertical and flip pizontal. Tap the selection tool to deselect and tap selection one, tap to transform to flip vert to go and flo prisontal. Then I will tap the transform tool and rotate 45 degrees four times so that I get the pattern in the same direction as I drew it in. Then I will move ahead and turn on the layout layer because now I want to know which pumpkins are supposed to be in the same color. I instantly see here that the number three is here, the pink. I will start on the pink layer there, turn off the visibility of the layout layer and I know that this pumpkin is supposed to be pink. I want to draw it with the dry inker, choose the same pink, and so in a little bit. I could save this. Did I need that? Yeah, maybe. I could save that. I think I draw it with 20%, and then I will draw. That pink pumpkin and fill it in with this Awesome textured brush. Okay. So then I can just move along on the layout. Number five is supposed to be the dark orange. I'll tap the dark orange layer. Number five, tap dark orange, can turn off the layout layer if it's in the way. Then I will draw the dark orange. Here. Next, turn on the layout. I have O number one, which is the peach. Turn off the layout again, open up the peach group, tap the peach layer, use the peach color, and it was that one was knits. Yeah, it's cut off, so I need to flip the pattern a little bit. I won't do the peach, actually. I want to do the number four, and we don't have a number four, so I will tap beneath the layout layer on top of the pink layer, tap the plus a new layer. And here I will go for another color, maybe like Base. Maybe this medium one. So there's only one of the number four, can turn off the layout layer, and draw the Big pumpkin. I didn't like the angle of that, so my draw it like this instead. Okay, so I'm happy with that. I can tap to add a new layer on top and rename that layer to texture. And then I can use the darker beige color, the perfect pencil, and add the texture here, the little lines. Like that. Swipe it right on both of those, tap group, rename the group to page ops. Oops. Rename the group to page. Then I would move ahead and go to the next texture layer, maybe. We could go to the pink texture layer. Use the pink brush. It's over here. I could add the lines. Like that, next texture layer, the brown already have texture in both, the pitch so we wit with and the dark orange. And the texture with that brown and just ops it's the wrong color. With that brown, am I on the right layer? Yeah. And then I would add. The texture like that. Then I will go to the black layer, tap the dark brown. And for this, I used the dry inker with a smaller brush and add these little black parts, or did I use the dry, I think I did. I don't remember, but I think I did. Yeah. And add the black parts. Again, if you feel the need to erase a little bit beneath the texture here. Beneath the layer with the color of the pumpkin. You can erase a little bit so that the black part doesn't shine through. So now we need to flip the pattern around one more time to get this pumpkin. I will tap the group, tap the selection tool, sad, selection four, and now I want to flip only the right and left edges in. I will tap selection four, tap the transform to, flip pal. Tap the selection tool to deselect, tap the selection tool again to select Save and load selection three, tap the transform tool and flip persontal. Tap the selection tool again and select Save and load selection two, tap to transform tool and flip persontal. Tap the selection tool to deselect and tap it again to select Save and load, selection one, tap to transform tool and flip persontal. Now it's a little bit flipped around. I will tap the transform tool and tap flip prisontal so that I get it in the right direction as I draw it in. I will turn on the layout layer and see which color was number one. It was this peach color. So then I will go to the peach layer with the peach color and the dry inker, and then turn off the visibility of the layout layer and draw my pumpkin with a larger brush. Maybe like hoops. Doing it again until I'm happy. This looks pretty good to me, and then adding the detail with the texture and the perfect pencil on the texture layer. And then adding the black on the black layer with the d. Oops, and a smaller brush. And erasing the extra parts. Then I can turn off the sketch layer and have a look at my pattern. 9. Hero Pattern: Add Details: Now we are all good with the pumpkins. What I want to do now is to add the little Beige dots. I will tap the layers panel, and I will just tap on top here in my layers and tap the plus, and I will write dots and use this base color with the dry inker. And I can see what size I want. I think I want around there, 20%. Then I will just add some dots here and there. I'm calling these filler elements, just to can I fill the pattern with something else. Add something more. That's interesting. So I can add them like in groups of three, maybe two here and there. Maybe one. On some places, in some places. Two. One, you can decide how are you want it to be or how dense you wanted to be, where you want to place these dots. That is good, I think, and then I want to flip the pattern around one more time to make sure that I don't have any empty spaces. I will tap the group, tap the selection to save and load, selection four. Tap to transform two flip word column flip persontal. Tap the selections tool again to deselect, and tap save and load, selection three, tap to transform to flip word, column flip persontal. Then tap the selections tool to deselect, tap it again. Save and load selection two, tap to transform to flip articul pzontal, tap the selection tool to deselect, and tap it again. Save and load, selection one, tap to transform to flip articulm fprizontal. Then I will tap the transform tool to select my whole pattern and rotate 45 degrees four times. And now I am finished with the pattern, and it's time to test the pattern. 10. Hero Pattern: Test the Pattern: Time to try out our pattern. I will swipe down three fingers, tap copy all, and we just tap on top on my layers panel so that my pasted layer will be on top here, and then I will swipe down three fingers, tap paste. Here I have a flatten image. The way that I usually test my panels is in the patent tester on my websites. I will tap into Safari, and to the patent tester, which you can find on my website, and there's also a link in this class. It's a completely free tool, and then I will tap and drag my flatten image into the pattern tester and I can zoom in and out and see that I'm super super happy with this pattern. As you can see, as we did a really thorough sketch with the pattern, it was easier to get the final pattern right. We didn't need to redo everything over and over again there. I will also try out my pan in Procreate. I went back to procreate, I swipe to the right so that I have you can do, you have five copies, and then I will tap the transform tool, tap in the top left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels. When you have the little chain symbol tapped in, and then you tap the next layer, tap in the top right corner node, type in 1,500 pixels. Tap the next layer, tap the bottom left corner node, 1,500 pixels. Tap the next layer and tap the transform tool and in the bottom right corner node and 1,500 pixels. Then you can merge these layers together by swiping them together. And here we have our first pattern. So we'll just shut down my color panel and my reference window. Here we have our first pattern in our collection. It's the repeated pattern. And then you have your patentile. For this class, for the purpose of the class and sharing your patterns, I suggest that you share your repeated patterns because then we can see a Zoomed out version. So I'll turn on that one and later on in class, I will show you how to export the files. So let's move on to the next pattern. 11. Secondary Pattern: Draw the Stripes: Let's continue to create our secondary pattern, which I'm thinking is the stripes one. It has a little bit more colors than the stars one, which I'm considering to be a blender print. The first thing that we will do is just to select the pattern template and duplicate that one. Then I will tap into one of those and I can just swipe the right on the first layer and tap clear, and then I can draw my pattern. So let's just bring up our reference, tab Canvas reference image, import image, and I want my reference image here. You can zoom in. So this is actually a simple stripes pattern, and I will show you how to do that with a texture brush. And I'm not sure if I want to use exactly these colors. Let's try it out when we create. So now I know it's a simple stripes pattern. I don't need this one, but what I might want to Do is two, actually, go back to gallery, tap the select for the Pumpkins patent, tap Share, and tap J peg and save that to your camera roll. That way, tap into pattern template again. Actions panel Canvas reference, and I might want to use import here. I might want to use the Pumpkins pattern for color reference here to decide which colors I want to have on my stripes pattern. So for the stripes pattern, we are not sketching anything. We're just creating it. It's a quick pattern to create. You need to be a little bit detailed in the edges. But other than that, let's just move along. The first thing that I will do is to add a background layer. I will tap the first layer, tap rename, rename the background. And then I will bring out my color panel, and I want the cream white background. I will tap the cream white, tap the background layer and tap fill layer. The next thing that I want to do is to turn on some guidelines here. I will tap the actions panel drawing guide, edit drawing guide, and I want to to the grid. But I could bring it down to maybe a tenth of the size. The size of my canvas is 3,000 pixels. If I type in 300, then I know that I have an even amount of squares here. This is just to make sure that our lines are matching up. Then I will tap in the layers panel, the plast to add a new layer. And just as we did in the previous pattern with the Pumpkin, I will keep my color separated in layers. That way, it will be much easier to recolor later on if we would want to do that. So let's just start here. We can always delete, move back and forth and try things out. I want to use the same brush, the dry inker. Let's just the new layer here. It's the same color. Let's just choose a color to start with. Let's would choose like the brighter pink that one maybe. Then I will just draw. This looks a little bit large. How about around 10%, maybe? Maybe around 10%, I can just remove the smallest size stairs. I will tap the size tap the minus so that I can bring a size that is maybe 12% and save that, and then I can draw here, and that looks good to me. With the guidelines, what we want to do is, even though if we want to make a curly line, we still want to met it up here and here. If I would like to do a wavy thing, I still want to do it sharp in the edges. But for this pattern, I want to keep it straight lines, a little bit wonky, maybe, but mostly straight. I will just start with drawing. I won't do the quick shape, which is when you tap and hold, to make a straight line because I don't want that straight lines. I want it a little bit more organic, as you can see here, but I still want it to be straighten the edges. There you have one, and I will tap to add a new layer. I can just rename this to pink or nice. Rename the layer to pink, and tap to add a new layer. I have the pink. I might want the peach. Let's try the lighter peach. Over there. That looks good, too. So I'll just rename it to peach. So I'm just trying out the colors, and I wanted to match this. In my sketch, I had black lines, but I'm not sure that I want that sharp pattern. So I'll try out the more soft colors, I think. I'll tap the plast that a new layer. And if I had peach there, I might do maybe like the base that's on the The dot? Let's try that out. That's good. Let's just rename that layer to Base. We can always rector this later on. Ta the plast a a new layer, and let's go for the other base maybe. I'm trying to go for the softer colors here, not the really dark ones to keep it like a soft looking pattern. Should we do one more color? I think so because if we have one line here, And we will have one on the edge there. So as you can see, I'm drawing on the lines. Then we have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, 910. So I need one more to make five lines of each or two lines of each color. Okay, so take that away, remove that. And then let's try. Should we do the background, maybe the orange one. This one was what are we supposed to call that? Dark base and One. Oops. Tap ta a new layer and rename the layer to orange. Then I will draw an orange here. I really like these colors. I don't feel that I want to actually change the colors, but if you would like to experiment a little bit, you could just draw with the different colors and see which one you like. But I really like the softer ones. So I will do the orange like that. Now all that we need to do is just to move back to the pink layer to the pink color, draw a pink one here. Tap peach layer. Draw a peach here. And the base layer. Draw the base there. The dark base, is this one, the medium one. Oops. Draw that one. There. And then we need to flip the pan around to draw the ones on the sides. So I will swipe the right on all of these layers, tap group. Tap the group and tap the selections tool. If you get an error message, you might have Colorful selected. I talked more about that in the first video with the Pumpkin pattern. Check that out if you don't know what I'm talking about, if you get an error message here. Otherwise, I selected a group, tap the selection tool, saved selection four, and I just want to flip the edges. I tap the transform tool, flip horizontal, tap the selection tool to deselect, tap it again to select, Save load selection three. Tap the transform tool and flip horizontal, tap the selection tool again to deselect and tap it again to select Save a load selection two. Flip prisontal with the transform tool, tap the selections tool to deselect and tap it again to select save a load selection. One, tap the transform tool and flip prisontal. Now we can see we have one line left there and it's on the orange layer. I will just draw with the orange color on the orange layer like this. Now it's time to flip this around and fix the edges of the pattern. 12. Secondary Pattern: Make the Pattern: Let's make the repeat of the pattern. What I will do first is to just turn off the drawing guide because I don't need that, and I will turn off the reference window because I don't need that, I'm happy with my colors, but I will keep my color palette because we need to draw in the edges. What I will do now is to tap the layers panel, tap the group, tap the selection tool, save load, tap selection four, and I will tap the transform tool and just flip vertical. Then I will tap the selections tool to deselect. Tap save a load, selection three, tap the transform to flip vertical. Tap the selection tool again to the select, and tap it again to select Save load, selection two, tap the transform tool and flip vertical, and tap the selection tool again to deselect, and tap it again to select selection one, tap the transform tool and flip vertical. If we wom in here, you can see that the edges aren't matching. So what we need to do now is to go in on each layer and make sure that the edge are matching. I think we can manage to do that even here in the edges, even though they are cut off a little bit. So let's just start with orange layer. And I think on that layer, I only need to fix a little detail there. So I will go really low in size, 5%. And with the right color. I could probably just like, move over the brush a little bit over the edge and drag it down so that you can't see the edge there because it was so close. I think that this would look good. And then I need to do something about this, and as I can see it here, it will be a little bit too thick if I just fill it in there. So what I would do then is go with the eraser tool and the monoline brush from the power pack, and I would erase with a larger brush a little bit of this so that I can redraw it. And then I will tap the power pack brush set, the dry inchor. And now I need the 20% brush size again and the same orange color. And now I can just see if I can get the right line here and might take a little while. Did I have no, I had 12% in size when I draw this. I had 12% in size, and then I'll just try to match it, and that matches it. And if I swum in, I can go in with a smaller brush size, fix this edge. This is a bit of work when you have take brushes because you don't want it to have sharp edges here and there. Then you will see where the stroke or the line repeats. That looks good now, and if you want to you can fill in a little bit more here, just to make it look a little bit more even in the texture. Let's move on to the next layer, the dark base, like that. Here I can see that I need to erase as it's too much space on both sides. Then I can try to I don't need to erase the same part. I can ask the orange one. I could erase maybe from here to maybe up or down. So maybe I could just erase there so that is not exactly the same part as the orange one. And then I tap the right color. I have 12% in brush size. On the right layer with the dry anchor brush, I can move in and just change this. But I can see that this is a little bit far out on the right, and this is a little bit too far out on the left. I would actually just erase a larger part of that so that I can get it in the right direction. Then I will just draw until I find the right line and use 5% brash size to move over these edges so that you can't see them. Okay. That's good and here on this one. I think we actually can just add a little bit. And make sure that you don't have a line there. You're filling a little bit over here as well. So that is not obvious. That's great. And now we're moving to the Base tap the Base color. Where do we have that one? This one is super simple. We just have a little bit of here. I'm just adding a bit there. Already looks great. The next one We can see if we can add here or if it would only look too thick. Maybe we could actually erase just a little bit here, and then we want to add that dry incher edge again. This might actually work. Yeah, I think that works. We're moving to the next layer peach. The peach is pretty good. I would just fill in a bit over the edge there. Make sure you can see that I've been here and fill in some color because that will be a fail when it comes to the seam less part of pato making. You don't want to see where the seams are. That's good and then go to the pink layer, the pink color. Here, we could probably just erase a little bit here. And maybe a little bit there. Could we? Now, we're on the peach layer. Pink. Peach, ase. I'm using a smaller brush to just add in the texture in the edge there. Make sure that this line isn't showing, adding in some more there and making sure that the edge is seamless, and I think I will do the same on this one. Raise a bit there, raise ale bit there and use a small brush. To just add a little bit to the edge and to the center parts. Okay, now we're finished with the pattern, and it's time to test 13. Secondary Pattern: Test the Pattern: Test the pattern, I will tap at the top of my layers panel. Swipe down with three fingers, tap copy all, swipe down with three fingers tap paste. That will have given you a flattened image, and I will go to my patent tester on my website, which is a free tool. I will tap split view in procreate Safari. Then I will tap and drag my pattern into my patent tester. This is the quickest way to test patterns for me. And this looks perfect. I'm super happy with that, and then I will move back to procreate. If you want to test the pendent procreate, I'll just shut down the color panel, and then I would swipe the right on the layer to duplicate it so that I have five copies, tap the transform two, tap in top left corner node. Type in 1,500 pixels, when you have the little chain symbol taped in. Tap the next layer, tap in the top right corner node, and type in 1,500 pixels. Tap the next layer, tap in the bottom left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels, and tap in the bottom right corner node on the next layer and type in 1,500 pixels. Then we can swipe these layers together to merge them. Here you have your repeated pattern and here you have your pattern tile. To share in class, I suggest that we share the repeated patterns. I will keep that on the visibility when we move on to our last and next pattern, the blender prints. 14. Blender Pattern: Make the Pattern: Let's move on to create our last pattern, our blender pattern. I will save my patent templates. I will tap select, tap the patent template, and tap duplicate. And that way, I have a copy of my patent template to be used later on. So tap in to the patent template, and here I have that. What I need to do now is to make the stars pattern. As you can see here, is just a pattern. This one I made with a dark background and base stars. I'm not sure which colors I want, but I don't need to bring out the reference or anything. First, let's just rename this two stripes and this two stars. Then tap into the pattern template that I named stars, swipe the right on the layer and tap clear to clear that layer. What I will do is to add a background here, so I will tap the layer tap rename, right background and then enter, and here I want to choose a color from my Halloween color palette. Let's try the darker brownish color first. I will tap that one tap f layer. And it's a little bit hard to see this on screen. Let's just create in a different color because you can't see the edges here. Let's create we can just create the Base background, tap the background, tap f layer. Now we have a Base background, and now I will tap the layer and rename that to stars. And for this pattern, I have a little trick. So you could definitely draw the stars, and you could do it in any brush with the dry incher, for example, you could just draw the stars. Let's do white stars on the base background, and you can draw the stars and fill them in and you draw another star and fill it in. But I have a little shortcut here, and that is my star stamp brush. So with the star stamp brush that's included in the power pack, I will just stamp my star. So if you haven't downloaded the power pack, you can go ahead and draw the stars with a dry inchor, just as I did here, and it will work exactly the same. But if you have downloaded my power pack brush set, you have a star stamp that you are free to use for both personal and commercial use, and it's a little bit wonky. It's very charming, and it's a nice motif to be used either as a filler element or as a separate element in a blended pattern like this. So I am going to use that star stamp. So if you haven't downloaded the Power pack, you can just draw the stars like that. But now I am going to use the star stamps. I will tap the H fontol, and just move those out because I just wanted to show you. And then I'm using the star stamp. Here, I just want to place some stars. It's really just a matter of checking out the size. I think that this size is pretty good, around 20%, maybe a little bit smaller, around 18%, maybe. I just want to place some stars here and there. We can move them around later on. Maybe like that. Then I want to tap the layers panel. Swipe to right on both of the layers, tap group. Tap the group, tap the selection tool, Save and load, selection four, tap the transform tool, flip vertical flat persontal. Tap the selection tool again to deselect, and tap it again to save a load selection three. Tap to transform tool, flip vertical flat persontal. Tap the selection tool again to deselect, and tap the selection tool to select, selection two. Tap to transform tool, flip vertical flo persontal. Tap this selection tool again to select selection one and save and load. Tap to transform to flip vertical flat persontal. Here I will just add one more star, or should I add two, three more stars. I don't know how dense I want it. I don't think that I want it. That dense, actually. I will add two stars, and then I will move them around, I think. So when I made all of the stars that I think that I want, I will use the selection tool. Select around the star, tap the transform tool and just move the stars around. Until I feel that they are a little bit more balanced in the pattern. We can just twist them around as well if you want to. And just moving them. I think that this looks good. So now I will show you how to add the texture from the dry inch to these stars. 15. Blender Pattern: Add Texture: Will add what's it called the dry ink texture to the stars. This is optional, but it's a fun little trick. What I will do is that I will tap the stars layer tap select, and then I can just turn off the visibility of that layer and I will tap the plus tad a new layer. With the same color, I'll go for the dry incher. Here you can choose a larger brush size and just move over your full canvas so that the full stars are filled with the dry ink. Texture. I think that it will work with filling the stars that are cut off in the edges. But we will see that when we test the pattern, if it doesn't work, we can just redo those. Then I'll tap this selection tool and now we can see that you have this really nice texture in the stamped stars. 16. Blender Pattern: Test the Pattern: Let's try out the pattern and see how it's repeated. I will tap at the top of my layers panel, swipe down with three fingers tap copyal, swipe down with three fingertap, paste. First, I will tap the three later dots, tap split view, Safari, and now I will tap and drag my flatten image from my layers panel into my patent tester. And I will swipe down to zoom out and swipe up, and I think that this is a perfect pattern. It's a little bit imperfect in the balance, but I really like the look of that. I will keep it like that. And then I will go into procreate and swipe to the right on the flatten image to get five copies out, tap the first layer, tap in the top left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels. When you have the chain sable taped in, tap the next layer, tap in the top right corner node, type in 1,500 pixels. Tap the next layer, tap in the bottom left corner node, type in 1,500 pixels, tap in the next layer and tap in the bottom right corner node, and type in 1,500 pixels and tap the transform tool. Now, I will swipe these layers together. I will also shut down my color panel, and then I will have my repeated image here, my repeated pattern, and my patentile. I will keep my repeated pattern visible. The I can export these patterns later on and so that you can share them in the class. 17. Recoloring: Now we actually created all three patterns that we planned from the beginning, and we made the hero pattern, the Pumpkins, the secondary pattern with the lines, and the blender pattern with the stars. Now, I just wanted to show you how to do if you want to recolor the patterns in a non destructive way in procreate. Let's just move into the simplest pattern first, and then we can move into the most complicated pattern, so we can just see how to change the colors of those. Tap into the stars pattern or actually, let's just make a copy of that. Tap the select button, tap the stars pattern, tap duplicate, so that we can change the colors. Then I will tap into the new one, and here I will turn off the visibility of the two flatten images. Now I can just move into the layer, that's called Layer four now, but it should be named stars. Then I will tap that layer tap falc then I will choose another color from my color palette over here. And I can tap filler, and then I have recolor the stars. You can also recolor the background. You will just choose a color. Let's choose pink color. Tap the background and filler. That is how you would recolor the stars pattern. Let's recolor to darker background and flayer. And maybe I want the stars to be base, as we planned from the start, tap filler. That is how you recolor a simple pattern like this. If you want to recolor the pumpkin pattern, it works exactly the same on all patterns, but I just wanted to show you a pattern that is a little bit more complicated. I would duplicate that one and tap into one of those, turn off the visibility of the flatten images, sum out a little bit. Let's say that I want to change the color of the background first. Maybe you don't need flock on that one. You will just need the background, maybe I want the background to be cream white, for example. Cream white background. Tap the layers panel background, feel layer, super simple. Then I might need to change the colors of some pumpkins. I will go into the brown layer, for example, tap the layer, tap afg. Maybe I want a softer orange color there now. Then I also need to change the color of the texture. I will tap that layer af and I would want the darker color of the orange of that texture. Let's just change the color of one more pumpkin color. Let's change the pink one. So I'll tap the pink layer, tap afg. Choose a color. Maybe this darker base color and tap f layer, and then tap the texture layer, tap afg maybe I would just go for a darker base there and tap f layer. That is how you would recolor the pattern in a non destructive way and you would do the same on stripes as you would on the other ones. I would just tap and drag these two recolor patterns over here, so I know that these three are my original patterns. 18. Export the Files: So now it's time to export the files. And I will show you how I would export the files to be sharing in class. And you can also export the files to be used on a print on a man shop or a product or to take it into another program if you want to I don't know, put it on a moreAP, or something like that. What I would do is to just select my three patterns, and tap share JPEG and save it to my camera roll or save it to wherever you want to save it. If you want to save your patent tile, I would tap into the pattern and turn off the visibility of the repeated pattern, tap the actions panel, share Peg, and then I would save the image. In class, I would suggest that you share your repeated images, but you can also use your patent tiles for other purposes. 19. BONUS: Have a Look at Using Procreate Mockups: We are finished with our mini pattern collections. But before you go, I just wanted to show you one of my favorite ways of trying out my patterns on products, and that is mockups. So these mockups are exclusive for the members in my Pattern ables membership, and you will get them if you subscribe to the All Access plan. But if you're interested, check it out, and I just wanted to show you how to use them. So for example, if you want to try out your pattern collection, this is P mockps that's included in this class, if you're looking at it in the Pattern reverse membership. And I have this napkin mockup where you can see your full pattern collection in a napkin mockup that has Halloween theme, kind of like a rustic Halloween theme. All that you need to do with MGA in Procreate is that I've created the file like this. You don't need to touch any of the layers that have the chain symbols. You just need to add your patterns here. Let me just remove my patterns so you can see how to add them. Here I would just tap that top nap in layer, tap actions panel a insert a photo, and then I would insert my pattern that I've created. And here you can sum it, move it on the Map to somewhere where you think it's good fit. Then I would do the same on the middle one, middle napkin, tap actions panel, add inserted photo, and I would insert my repeated pumpkin pattern, and then maybe bring it down in size a bit. And add it over there. The next one, I will tap the bottom napkin, tap the actions panel, add insert photo and add my stars pattern. And there it looks really nice. Then you can just export this image, share image as a JPEG, save it to your camera, and then you can use it on your website or wherever on Instagram where you want to show your patterns that you created. I will show you the other mockups that are included as a member of the all access plan in my Pattern Ribles membership. So that is, you have the napkin mockup. You have the pumpkin mockup, which is really fun. You can imagine that you can have drawn the pattern on a pumpkin. Then you have this little baby girl dress, and a throw pillow and a gift bag, all with a Halloween theme. So if you would like to explore that, check out my membership, Pan Raples, and the all access. 20. Final Thoughts: And that my friends is all for this class. If you only get one thing out of this class, I hope it is that it doesn't need to be complicated to make a pattern collection. In this class, we're creating a mini collection, but if you want to take it further, you can add more patterns to make it a larger collection, that can be used for all sorts of purposes. There's no limit to what you can create, and you already done the groundwork by finding inspiration, choosing a theme, and creating this mini collection. And if you're eager to dive deeper into pattern design and get the Procreate mockups. Be sure to check out my membership Paneras. In Patter ables, you will get access to monthly classes, design resources, like Procreate brushes, color palettes, mockups, and pattern layout templates. Plus, we have a monthly design challenge, feedback sessions, and Q&A opportunities where you can ask anything about design or running a creative business. You can learn more at pattern bles.com.
