How to Export Patterns from Photoshop for Scale (Sizes) for Spoonflower

from Creatives Ignite · host diane gibbs

This video shows you my process for making different scaled versions (sizes) of the pattern I created in Photoshop. The reason we do this is if someone is wanting it to be wallpaper they might want a bigger tomato. But if they are using it on a small bag or a pocket of an apron they want the tomatoes (the original repeating pattern tile) to be smaller. I know when I am sewing the little bags I have been making, The smallest patterns I had uploaded to Spoonflower were still larger than I wanted. This past December I uploaded some smaller sizes of my favorite patterns so I can make more bags using these smaller print sizes. Spoonflower had a 40% off fat quarters this past weekend and I bought a bunch of my new smaller sizes because a fat quarter is enough fabric for me to make a few of the little bags I am making.
