I love the way you say you may not love the pattern and that's ok!

I don't remember saying that, but that's totally something I would say!

how did you clean all your motifs so perfectly and with what did you create these??

Great question! Full disclosure: the drawings I'm using are similar to my ink style, but they are actually public domain drawings that are free to use. That said, I have loads of experience converting my own ink drawings to vector art using Adobe Illustrator. Here's how: scan your black ink drawing (this technique only works with black ink drawings) or make sure your drawing is well lit and take a high res photo of your drawing with your phone. Drag/drop your image into an open Illustrator file and use Image Trace. I have a tutorial showing you how to use Image Trace: kzitem.info/news/bejne/w5yNp6l7rJp3oIY The image I use for this tutorial is a random image I found online for demonstration purposes. If you want me to do a tutorial using one of my own ink drawings with a lot more detail, I can do that. This feature has no limitation to the amount of detail you can convert to vector-it just takes a little longer for the computer to process. Hope that helps!

Hey! I have made the patterns but I can still see square tiles on my pattern, so its still not seamless yet! Can you please tell me where could have I gone wrong?

Great question! If you want to stick to this method of making a pattern, the solution requires a little troubleshooting on your part. I have an alternate method that may be WAY easier for you, so I urge you to skip to my alternate method at the bottom of this comment. Here are a few things to check: 1) Check that all your background squares/rectangles that go to the edge of your artboard have no stroke. 2) Go to VIEW (in the top menu) and scroll down to check SNAP TO GRID. Then adjust the corners of your background square to make sure they snap to the artboard corners. 3) As an alternative to step 2, move all background squares off your artboard and recreate them by choosing the rectangle tool. Make sure you have a fill colour and no stroke. Click on your artboard and input the dimensions of your artboard. Then move the new shape until it clicks into the edges of your artboard. There's a MAKE PATTERN option in Illustrator! Here's my tutorial video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/zZuAqIigamqToGU The video is time stamped by the steps in the video description, so click "make a pattern" to skip to that step. This method makes a seamless pattern out of the foreground objects only. You can add your background as a flat coloured shape afterwards. This alternate method may not work the first time you do it if your background also has seamless shapes, but Adobe Illustrator has so many options and features that there's always a solution to every problem. Hope this works!

Everybody learns differently. Maybe I can help you, or I can fix the video to better explain. Let me know what specific part you don't understand.

Hello - this is a brilliant video. I have encountered a problem. The images that overhang the artboard are all surrounded by individual red boxes when I group them and go to move them to swatches. What am I doing wrong?
