If you want to create a regular seamless pattern, you can use any open design on your workspace and use it as a fill, but what if you want to arrange the designs at angles, or with mirrored elements?
This script will generate 13 different seamless tiles from any single design (you can use multiple elements if you want since they will all be merged before creating the tiles).
And if you want to only generate one particular pattern, you can choose it manually too.

For a sample, I generated one tile of each of the 13 patterns, using cliparts of paint tubes in different colors. Each tile is in PNG format so you can add whatever background you want to them.

Argyle patterns might be simple to create but if you want a series of tiles matching a color palette, it becomes tedious. This script will generate up to 10 tiles starting with your choice of color palette, and a few more options. It will create those tiles for you in just a few seconds. Keep the tiles you like and discard the others.
For a sampler, I used the color palette from the June 2024 blog train at DigitalScrapbook.com. I generated 10 different seamless tiles that you can use for your next project.
It is always interesting to use an actual photo and use it to create background papers since they will perfectly match.
As a sampler, I used this St-Patrick photo to generate 6 seamless tiles. All the tiles are 400 pixels wide but of different lengths. They all show some greens but also the white and orange from the Irish flag. This is perfect for you St-Patrick projects. If you find the colors too bright, you can blur them or desaturate them to suit your projects.
To create patterns from photos is a great way to have matching colors for your papers. In addition, it is a great way to use "bad" photos, those out of focus, with odd colors, etc.
As a sampler, I created 10 seamless tiles using the same starting image as for the previous Quick Tile scripts. That means our tiles will match the other 20 patterns you can download.
Gradients can be really helpful to create unique patterns, but in order to make such a tile, you have to create a new gradient every time. That is tedious and a lot of work since you might not need those gradients afterward.
For a sample, I used the color palette from the DigitalScrapbook July 2023 blog train, and generated 16 different tiles. Each tile is 400x400 pixels in jpg format so you should be able to use them in most graphic programs.
Triangular shapes are easy to make and they can yield great results when used as a repeating pattern. However, the challenge is usually to mix and match the colors. This is what the script will do for you as it can generate up to 20 seamless tiles in one run, using any color palette of your choice.
For a sample, I generated 15 tiles (3 tiles for each of the 5 patterns) in pastel/Easter/spring colors. Use them at 100% scale or smaller if you prefer. You can also add a blur to the finished image if you want.
Plaids are versatile and since you can use a wide variety of colors, the possibilities are endless. Some plaids are simple, some are intricate. This particular design includes a hashed texture that will let you show any background color through.
For a sample, I used the color palette from the January 2023 blog train at DigitalScrapbook.com and created 10 tiles for you. They are in png format so you can add any color background behind them. And if you want to download various matching kits and elements, check out their blog train thread
You might be familiar with the regular straight chevron designs, but how about the curved ones? How would you do that? Doing it manually is a bit tedious but with a script, you can generate many seamless tiles in one run.
For a sample, I used a traditional holiday-themed color palette and generated some seamless tiles for you. Use them however you want to create background designs for your next projects.
Do you like the idea of creating your own complex seamless pattern? Do you want to make sure elements are not overlapping? Do you want a balanced distribution of the elements? Do you want to avoid too many blue buttons grouped together? It is sometimes hard to get that balance while making sure that the pattern is really seamless and does not show visible gaps.
As a free sample, I created this seamless "tile" from holiday picture tubes and this script. The tile is 1500x1500 pixels so you can resize it however you want, and you can add your own background color for different results.
