Project 1 Creating repeating patterns – Outcome 1

For this out come  I wanted to use a tile repeat, in my mind I wanted to create a tile pattern that could be replicated on all 4 sides. My first attempt nearly worked it was really good learning curve as I was able to follow each quarter by colouring in each quarter and then rotating it.pattern repeats dec 020Next step –

Decided on main insect for the tile,   I cut the image into 4 rotated it, re-joined the image and filed in the space created, I did this 3 times.

Learning outcome

Graph paper and tracing paper are very very useful, colour coding the segment’s of the tile enable me to easily match up the patterns.
