Watercolor repeats seem tricky, but they’re actually pretty simple to create in Photoshop if you know the right tools. This video will show you how to create a seamless watercolor pattern using any old watercolor “blob”. (Is there a term for that? Sorry, I’m not a watercolor artist!)
Make sure to watch to the end to see how to bring the pattern into Illustrator and fill a fashion flat (or other vector artwork) with it, and how to change the scale of the pattern.

ABOUT SEW HEIDI
Heya! Nice to meet you, I’m Heidi. I teach fashion designers like you the real world skills you *actually* need to learn to succeed in this cutthroat industry.
(You know, all the stuff you don’t learn at fashion school.)
I’ve worked as a contract designer for over a decade and run SuccessfulFashionDesigner.com. I’ve been able to make a healthy living doing work I love in fashion.
But I got started just like you, one step at a time. It began with some embarrassing hand sewn dresses and fashion sketches that would make a 3-year-old’s artwork look like a masterpiece.
Then, things changed. I learned how design was done on a large scale. I learned how to get things into production. And I learned all the skills I wish I knew when I was first starting out.
Now, I dedicate most of my time teaching you all of that. This content is hard to find anywhere else (because in fashion, people keep secrets), so I decided to create it...and give most of it away for free.
