  1. How to Export Patterns from Photoshop for Scale (Sizes) for Spoonflower

    How to Export Patterns from Photoshop for Scale (Sizes) for Spoonflower

    This video shows you my process for making different scaled versions (sizes) of the pattern I created in Photoshop. The reason we do this is if someone is wanting it to be wallpaper they might want a bigger tomato. But if they are using it on a small bag or a pocket of an apron they want the tomatoes (the original repeating pattern tile) to be smaller. I know when I am sewing the little bags I have been making, The smallest patterns I had uploaded to Spoonflower were still larger than I wanted. This past December I uploaded some smaller sizes of my favorite patterns so I can make more bags using these smaller print sizes. Spoonflower had a 40% off fat quarters this past weekend and I bought a bunch of my new smaller sizes because a fat quarter is enough fabric for me to make a few of the little bags I am making.

    Three Ways to Use SMART OBJECTS for Patterns in Photoshop

In this episode I break down when to use smart objects and how to use them in three different ways to edit your patterns and make your artwork work harder for you.

    In Search of a Formula for Making Patterns: Analyzing Mercedes Cortés Award-Winning Pattern

    This is a new podcast series called: In Search of a Formula for Making Patterns. Find it at https://www.spoonflower.com/en/collections/1348617-whimsical-boho-garden-by-garabateo Find Mercedes Cortés at: https://www.garabateo.com On instagram at: www.instagram.com/garabateoprints/ On Spoonflower at: https://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/garabateo Find full show notes at: https://creativesignite.com/in-search-of-a-formula-for-making-patterns-analyzing-mercedes-cortes-award-winning-pattern/ I am diane gibbs, a budding surface pattern designer and host of the Creatives Ignite Podcast. As I am learning Surface Pattern Design, I've some encountered some hurdles. Because of these challenges, I want to analyze many successful surface pattern designers, what attracts me to their work, and analyze their collections and patterns to see if I can create the formula I've been needing so that the hero pattern stops eluding me. In this series, I am digging into what makes their collections successful and try to reverse-engineer their collections, mini-collections, and specifically how they construct their hero patterns. This week I am analyzing designer, Mercedes Cortés' Whimsical Boho Garden Mini Collection which was an award-winner in one of Spoonflower's bi-monthly challenges. I do not personally know Mercedes but am a fan of her work and love that she has different styles. I am trying to keep these analyses under ten minutes and take you along as I look at some of my favorite surface pattern designers.

    About the Cucumber Making Episode 496B

    This has been a long time coming. New habits, new obstacles. I tried shooting with two cameras and it was pretty much an epic fail. Not so much in the shooting, although that could have been better but mainly in the editing. I should have done a lot of things differently. SHOULD, SHOULD, SHOULD. So instead I will share what I learned. I need to ask myself what is most important: keeping to a schedule or trying something new. I guess here we saw the fail of keeping to a schedule. This means when I am trying something new I need to practice on a short something instead of content with three hours. YIKES. Ok lesson learned.
