I have been asked a few times how to make a gingham, tartan or plaid pattern in Procreate The answer is normally, that I wouldn’t make these in Procreate, I would use Photoshop, as I think it gives you more flexibility and precision.

BUT… I wanted to share a quick and easy way to do it in Procreate if that’s the only option you have. Because sometimes, we’ve just got what we got, right? Also, sometimes you just want to be able to make a seamless plaid pattern without getting up off the sofa! (just me?)

Using this method will guarantee you lovely, evenly spaced grids with no wobbly lines and a perfect seamless repeating pattern for using in your artwork, such as clipped to a lettering design as I demonstrate in the video.

Have you ever tried making a seamless plaid pattern in Procreate? Did you do it this way or a different way? Let me know in the comments!

Enjoy!
