How to Make a Foolproof Flowery Wallpaper Pattern – Screencast

on Apr 6th 2009 with 8 comments

“Pattern possibilities in Illustrator are endless and knowing them back-to-front can only be a good thing. The key lies in perfect tessellation and while there are several ways of achieving this, it needn’t be more complicated than the following steps describe” – Ian Yates

Let me know any feedback you have in the comments. I plan to do more of these screencasts on a regular basis, so any advice you all have would be helpful.

    Guide isn’t serving as a crop box. What should I double check?

    • Laurus

      He fails to mention it in the tutorial. It is no longer a guide but a rectangle with no fill.
