If you are on this page, you want "the sequel". You know what that means, right?

A sequel infers that there was something that came before it. That means that you already have some basic understanding.

If this were a sequel to a movie, you already have an idea of what happened before. The movie would do a cursory catch-up but not show the whole first movie and add on the sequel, who would sit through that?

So if you buy my sequel, there are some things I assume
you know before you begin. Here is what you need to know
to be successful with this book:

  • How to create a basic repeat pattern in Photoshop™. If you have my first book, "Basic Repeat Borders & Patterns", and have learned the material, you can skip the rest because you are good to go!

  • How to create "clean icons". I work from the assumption that you have images or icons with no background or stray pixels floating about.

  • How to use the offset filter to create repeats.

  • How to define patterns, save sets of patterns and apply repeat patterns.

Are you set with all 4 of these skills?

If so, buy the book or read on for more information.
If not, click here and review your options.

So what is the big deal about half-drop repeats anyway?

Isn't it enough to be able to create a basic repeat pattern? Being able to provide patterns in repeat will give you a competitive advantage over artists who can't. Whether you need to learn this next step just depends on how much of an advantage you want.

RepeatGrid-BasicThis is a basic repeat pattern. You set up a square that repeats like basic tile laid side by side on a bathroom floor.

If you have ever purchased a new house, you know builders love to entice you with upgrades. Perhaps this type of tile is included in the base price of the house.

RepeatGrid-HalfDropBut if you want tile with a more interesting layout, it takes a little more time and it will cost you.

This is how a half-drop repeat pattern spreads out across a paper, fabric or other product.

TESTIMONIALS

Don't just take my word for it. Here is what others are saying...

JillSeale"Tara's tutorial on fabric repeats unlocked the mystery for me! It's easy to get through and is presented in a very friendly manner. In addition to the great repeat information, I picked up some excellent Photoshop tips that simplified things I've been doing the long hard way all these years, which was an unexpected bonus!"
