An iPad with the Apple pencil and the app Procreate is really all you need to create wonderful patterns from sketch to finished tile. I’ll walk you through how I sketch my patterns, draw my motifs and then show you every step on how to create both basic and half drop repeats using a few work arounds in Procreate. But hey, you can do it all on the go, wherever you want, ALL on the iPad :)

I'm an illustrator and designer with experience from a bunch of markets, all from editorial to home decor. And I make a lot of patterns. As I often mix digital and analogue techniques I tend to create most stuff on my iPad nowadays. And I was so excited when I finally found a way of creating finished patterns, especially half drops, without having to leave the iPad – I'm so glad to finally share this with you!

In this class you will learn:

• Quick basics of Procreate, enough to create patterns
• How to create a BASIC repeat from sketch to finished tile
• How to create a HALF DROP repeat from sketch to finished tile
• How to export and upload to a print-on-demand site

You will need:

• iPad with an Apple pencil (or similar stylus)
• Procreate (app to be bought in App Store, costs 9.99 USD – absolutely worth it!)
• Adobe Capture (free app to download and use even though your not a paying Adobe CC user)
