Violet Fabric

A very simple, purple fabric seamless tile.

Denim Daisies

I saw another pattern somewhere that was similar to this, and wanted to create my own version with a different style and pink and dark teal palette.

Cranberry

I have a bit of a pattern style going with fruit names. This pattern fits in the same family as “Banana,” “Tangerine,” and “Pomegranate.” Psd version included in download.

Dark Square

A simple, desaturated geometric pattern. Minimal and bold. Photoshop version included in zip file for easier customization (.psd CS4).

Patterns in the wild: Examples of great pattern usage in design

Invaders

Anchors

Acer

Purple Pyramid

Carver

Elephant

Foundation

Thatch

Parker

Stand In

A minimal, grey, interlocking pattern. Can be used for hi-end websites as a nice accent or simple background treatment.

Irish

The green color palette and overall shape reminds me of an Irish or Celtic pattern. A few of the pattern elements are also in groups of fours for good luck.
