Did you ever experience the dread when one of your pattern elements is not repeated correctly in Affinity Designer? Do you find the process of creating seamless pattern repeats involve too many manual calculations? Then this class is for you! This is a real revolution in creating seamless repeat patterns in Affinity Designer - where the whole repeat is created AUTOMATICALLY for you! Vector surface pattern design has never been easier.

This class will show you a more efficient way of working in Designer, making the pattern creation a breeze. You simply have to do the drawing, but the repeat will be done for you with automated pattern templates. If you're interested in reading more, check out my blog post: "Automated Pattern Templates vs. Live Pattern Preview Tool in Affinity Designer".

Essentially, automated pattern templates do the pattern repeat for you! You create a template for any shape you want, diamond repeat, half-drop repeat, full-drop repeat, ogee, scallop, with or without symmetry - you can automate all those shapes. Transition today from beginner to PRO!

Affinity Designer is a fantastic tool for surface pattern designers! It's a great Adobe Illustrator alternative, as well as a nice companion to Adobe Fresco on your iPad. With regard to vectors, it is also a more superior alternative to Procreate (where you can only create raster illustration).
