Patterns Are Forever: Create a Symmetric Diamond Pattern in Procreate

Oh, this is absolutely stunning, Julia! The whole diamond composition is just perfect and all the elements are balanced and cohesive. Plus, those textures are wonderful. Can't stop looking at the final repeat. Thank you for sharing!

So pretty! What technique did you use to get your texture to repeat seamlessly?

Thank you! I used a seamless texture overlays that I created in Jennifer Nichols class - Texture Brushes 101: Brushes and Overlays in Procreate 5X.

Thanks! I need to take that class now! :)
