We can do a lot with these amazing iPads, especially when we make use of the numerous tools we have out there to help us. Procreate, as of now (just before Procreate 5 comes out) is an absolutely amazing tool and I rarely use anything else. However, when shifting designs into place for seamless repeat patterns within this app, there is a little bit of guesswork involved and it is difficult to get a pixel-perfect design. I learned how to make seamless repeats with a tiny bit of help from an additional app called Pixelmator (and even better, Affinity Designer!) and now I’m addicted to making perfectly seamless designs for fabric, wallpaper, and gift wrap. Join me in class to learn all of my tricks!Â
