Want to make your own fun seamless patterns for backgrounds or Print On Demand items? In this video I’m sharing some Canva hacks that make this process super easy to do!
Seamless pattern have a lot of different uses, especially if you want to do something fun like create notebooks, mugs, shirts, blankets, pillows, and more. So, let’s make some!
ADDITIONAL TIPS: If you are seeing tiny white lines in your design where the sections meet up, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to slightly nudge the sections together. Depending on the complexity of your design, you might have to fiddle with this a bit. Try also zooming in as far as you can to make sure things line up properly.
Also, If you’re having trouble with elements or text trying to replace the image in the grid when it comes time to fill in any blank spaces, hold down the Command key (Mac) or Alt key (Windows) while moving things around. This will prevent it from snapping into the grid space.

Hi Kat. This video is great, and so helpful. As I know Canva doesn't support 300 dpi. Which converter do you use for this issue?

@thecreativekatstudio 7 ай бұрын

Yeah this one is tricky. I hope someday Canva adds the ability to download graphics at 300dpi. For now there are two things you can do, create initial design at the highest possible size (5000 x 5000 px). You can also download the finished design as a PDF Print version since that does download at 300 dpi. You'd then convert it back into an image using one of the many converter websites out there.

Love this video, took me a few goes to understand why you used the 2 different frames, horizontal & vertical but it eventually made sense for seamless stitching - Thanks heaps. just one question though, if you start off with a 3000x3000px canvas to make your original pattern, save it and download it again and make multiple copies to create your seamless pattern, has your final pattern now multiplied in resolution accordingly? - eg 4 x copies of your original 3000x3000px design now totals 12000x12000px and if so, what does it equate to in dpi as I only need a 300dpi file

@thecreativekatstudio 4 ай бұрын

Not exactly. When you download a PNG or JPG from Canva it will only be at a resolution of 96dpi. That is the default size. If you want it higher, you’ll need to click the download button and then drag the “size” slider all the way to the right so it’s at its max size. This will give you a resolution of 288dpi. Yes, this will also increase the over all pixel dimensions as well. If you do this each time you download a piece of the pattern, you’ll get the highest resolution allowed by Canva. Once you’ve put all your pattern pieces together, do a final download at that max size setting to ensure your final pattern is 288dpi. This will give you the cleanest resolution for printing. Right now, the only way to get true 300dpi is with a PDF Print downloads which is also in CMYK colors.

Absolutely FANTASTIC video. 🙂 Do you recommend vectorizing the final product before uploading for POD?

@thecreativekatstudio 9 ай бұрын

It would really depend on what you're doing with that final image and the requirements for that specific POD item. Check with the service you're using for your POD products to see what file formats they recommend. Since the initial image gets downloaded as PNG before uploading back to Canva, the individual elements are no longer editable anyway. So I'm not sure converting to SVG at the end will have any added benefit.

@thecreativekatstudio 4 ай бұрын

Sometimes when creating patterns Canva doesn't always bring everything to the edges on the final part of the design. It depends on the complexity of your pattern. When you upload for the last time and add each quarter section to your final layout, you might have to use your arrow keys to nudge them once or twice toward the center. That's because even though it shows that it's aligned with the purple guide lines, it might not be. Zoom all the way in as far as you can to see where the gaps are, and nudge the pieces into place.

@thecreativekatstudio Ай бұрын

Every printing service has their own upload size and resolution requirements so I recommend you check that out first in Printify FAQ section. Then make your Canva design so that it fits those dimensions. Some patterns will work better than others when it comes to printing on fabric, so take a look at what some other people have done with Printify as a reference.

Thank you for asking this! I was also wondering about that because I'd like to use my pattern in a rectangle instead of a square @@ruby2411

Q: You said to start with a larger canvas to begin. What size canvas did you start with in this tutorial? And...what size did you end up with? You started with a square...can this also be used in say...8.5 x 11 (would there be any different steps to take because it wasn't a square image? TY

My original canvas was 2000 x 2000px because it gets downloaded a few times and Canva does not download images in full resolution. Sometimes I will do 3000 x 3000 depending on how much detail there is in those elements. And yes, you can make it any size you want. Most seamless patterns are created square so they will fit into any design. You just piece the together and any excess will go beyond your border and not get seen anyway. If you are doing this for online only viewing then a starting size of size 2000 x 2000, or 3000x 3000 will be just fine. However, if you want to do this for large format things like blankets, posters, etc. to be printed, I recommend using the largest canvas size possible so when it's submitted to a print company, you have a clean final image.

Thank you very much for the tutorial. Is there any way to make the seamless pattern fit inside a frame please ? Thank you

So you’ll want to take that very last step (where you added the pattern to the 4 squares), and download the whole thing one last time and upload back to Canva. That new pattern image came be used just like any other image, including putting it inside of frames.

@@thecreativekatstudio Thank you so much, it is actually very simple. I'm still not used to downloading and uploading images in Canva to be able to use them like images. Thank you again for taking your time to reply and explaining everything.
