Tahi Muhammad Get the Adobe app, in this app you can make patterns from anything you take a photo of, its awesome! Adobe Capture! And i think it was free!
Finally! You made me get through my Kimetsu No Yaiba cosplay since my mom refused to buy the Giyuu costume so I took matters in my own hands.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I’ve been looking for fabric for a specific dress, and you just saved me. 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. I'm curious because I intend on making custom lamp shades for my custom lamps. I wanted to add some value to it by making one of a kind templates. I can see that you're a passionate and creative human being. Blessings, it was a joy watching your video.
Thank you so much for your amazingly precise helpful video!
Thank you for this video! I would love to also have the pdf version you mentioned!
Thank you so much. Very inspiring and I am going to design some fabric! Going to watch your tutorials now to use Illustrator ... again Thanks x
Love your video and your fabric !!! Thanks for sharing 💙
Thanks. I enjoyed your video. I learn lots from this
You have no idea how useful this video is for me! Thank you so much. Will you make a video that explains how to make watercolor patterns in adobe illustrator?
This video was most helpful! I'm an artist and also write children's books and illustrate them, so I have a lot of subjects to choose from. I can hardly wait to get started.
You're the best! Excellent tutorials!
Thank you so much. You have done such a good work. it was really well presnted and informing. good luck
Hopefully I will be able to print out my own fabric and design my own pleated skirt. Thanks for the video
Love the design and thank you for this video! ♥
this is a great video. thank you. I just need to get illustrator as i remember working with it and enjoying doing so. I mostly use firealpaca for drawing if not ms paint since illustrator is pretty expensive. I wanna have custom fabric as I like to design custom witch hats and some of my hats will have patterns on the fabric, especially like planets or flowers and stars. so this is a great tutorial and would be a boost for my business
Hi, Affinity Designer is pretty good and one of the only vector softwares on par with AI and it's a one off purchase. Also there's Gravit Designer which has a free version but the Pro version also comes with a subscription however, it's still way cheaper than AI! Hope this helps.
I LOVE how the fabric and pattern turned out. Thanks for this video. I agree with others...do you have a video of your sketch-to-digital vector video? Thanks!
Thank you very much. Yes, here are my sketch to vector videos: oksancia.com/how-to-turn-a-sketch-into-a-vector-in-adobe-illustrator-how-to-draw-vector-leaves-tutorial/ and ruclips.net/video/WJ0Zz8PkPZA/видео.html
I was brought to this video by Oksana's email to me. Thank you, Oksana, for letting me know that you have a RUclips channel that I can go to! I am so glad this tutorial is accessible and makes my dreams come true! I look forward to all of your videos.
Many thanks and glad that you found it useful :)

Thank you for such an informative video. I have been designing silicone mermaid tails for a fee years now, and I want to start creating quality fabric ones. This is going to be so much fun!😁👍💞
Yay! Good luck, dear Diana! :)
Thank you! I want to make my own design to have exclusive clothing in my shop.
Wow! I didn't know this was around! thank you great video 💙🐝💙
Whoa. Great tutorial! I'm so excited to design mine's now!
So happy you liked it. Good luck! :)
I have always wanted to design my own fabric because many times I'm looking for something specific and can't seem to find it anywhere. I am pretty computer illiterate though so the whole process of learning Adobe Illustrator will be daunting but I am going to try. Thank you for this wonderful video.
Thanks, I enjoyed learning from this video. Cheers!
Thank you, Karl. Glad you found it helpful.
I was actually looking for a video to answer my question, Thank you!
Mahalo mahalo mahalo. Thank you Thank you Thank you. Your tutorial gave me tremendous confidence for my clothing venture. I didn't know where to start or who to ask. I am touring Vietnam soon and hope to create a couple of samples and explore manufacturing costs. But designing and printing the fabric was a total blockage for me. Thanks again.
I needed to learn how to do this so I could make a fabric Mermaid Tail thank you
Beautiful pattern. 😊🌷
Many thanks, dear Isolda! Do you have experience designing fabric?
Thank you, very nice, informative!
Great video & Beautiful designs!
stunning!
Thank you, dear Nailah.
Great video, thank you!!!!!
love your video! thank you so much for the info. I was wondering whether you think using a Wacom tablet for illustrator is better than just a regular mouse for beginners?
Wow. I have been looking for this training for a long time. Thank you.
Oksancia, I am so glad I discovered your channel. I have subscribed...you are such a nice lady and sooo talented! Thank you.....
Many thanks!
It’s October 13, 2020. This is cool. My daughter is a budding young artist and this would be great for her to venture into.
Oksancia. this was so good! We need someone to design some fabrics for our baby store. Just need the designs, no printing etc. Any suggestions where I could find a designer?
Hi from Puerto Rico!! Thank you for share your knowledges!!!♥️
🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Thank you for taking the time to make this video.......
You are welcome, dear Tanya! :)
Thanks for the videos. This is very very very useful for me. You give me a new vision. Thank you so much.
What an inspiration!!! I do love the sample you showed in this video...which fabric did you choose to print your flowers on I like the fabric. My goal since I do not have illustrator is to design stripes that are printed on a 45°..
angle ..in other words...stripes on the bias grain of the fabric...I want to create a bias binding in color stripes that I choose the colors. I don’t own adobe illustrator but I do own an iPad Pro app called Art Studio... I’m not sure you would know this app... I think it is vector. I know I can send it in a TIF, JPG,GIF I don’t think I know how to create the repeat that you speak about....is there a way I can use illustrator without having a computer...which I don’t have... and just sign up for it online and use my iPad? Crazy question I know...🤪. Really any advise is helpful. Thank you, great video, I will watch all your linked videos and subscribe
i totally forgot about spoon-flower,Thank you ♥
Thank you for this video. Very informative!!
Welcome! :)
Real is very useful. Finally I found what I look for. Thanks a lot 4 ur video

Thanks for this video. I’d love to have a PDF version please!
well done, from the idea to the fabric. the fabric looks realy good
Thank you 💓
Hallo I am from Indonesia. I like to see your videos 😊
very useful tutorial..thank you 😊
Thank you, dear Sneha! :)
THank you, this is great info. How do you assure the pattern will align when its put together? and what size square do you make it?
its 4000x4000 pixels
You have to design it to align before you print it
Thank you this is so helpful!!
Good video. Seems applicable. (I was looking for at-home creation without a middle-man, so didnt apply it.)
Thank you so much you are so genuinely nice 🥺
Hi Oksancia, thank you for sharing your knowledge.I was wondering what I don't have photoshop or AI illustrator right now, and just using Artrage by wacom can I still transfer my design using that softwatre?
My pleasure, dear Noel. Sorry, I don't have experience with Artrage so can't advise you on that!
Just what I needed . Thankyou
Oksancia, are you able to adjust the size of the elements on a repeating fabric tile? I will be trying my hand at making different items and I know I prefer smaller designs on for example tshirts.
Brava!
Very Interesting!!!! You have definately given me a great IDEA. I will try this now.... Thanks a lot.
The video helped explain the basic application to creating a fabric design using a computer and Illustrator, the only problem is that I am not all that versed in Illustrator. Is there a way to explain how to use the Illustrator program?
Thank you for sharing this information on making your own print .😊👍
Thank you ❤️!!!! :-)
How did you turn your sketch into a vector motif with ai or wacom or ipad???
I am also use these colours in my designs and I m very pleased to see your work.
Thank you, Mohammad! :)

Hi. What fabric did you select for printing. Looks beautiful.
good video
hope you keep update :)
Which dye's have u used for painting
mam.is there any textile patterns for jacquard designing at reasonable price
Thanks so much!
Cool
Great video! How do you actually get the sketching into the computer? Do you scan the sketching or draw it in the computer program too? ☺
Thank you! You can scan if you need high quality raster image for live tracing in Ai, but if you only need it for visual reference to trace by hand, then even a mobile phone camera works very well :)
oksancia Thank you so much :)
i was about to ask the same qustion.. :)
Ткань очень красивая вышла!
fantastic thanks for sharing
Hi,
Are you using a PC or Mac? Thanks
this is beautiful, l am very much interested and would love to have the pdf you mentioned
Hi
Do you recommend coreldraw or you suggest illustrator, which is better for vectors? Personally I use coreldraw.
Adobe Illustrator is the industry standard, but please use what works for you.
