How Do I Make a Step and Repeat Pattern in Photoshop?

1. Open the image you want to use in Photoshop. You can open any image, but for this tutorial we’ll be using a simple image of a solid color background with some text on it.
2. Select the “Rectangular Marquee Tool” from the toolbar. This is the tool that will allow us to make a selection in our image.
3. Drag the tool across the image to create a selection. You can make the selection as big or small as you like. For this tutorial we’ll be making a small selection.
4. “Define Pattern”. This will open up the Pattern dialog box where we can name our new pattern.
5. Enter a name for the pattern and click “OK”. I like to name my patterns something descriptive so I know what they are later on. For this tutorial I’ll be naming my pattern “Step and Repeat”.
6. Create a new file in Photoshop. This is where we’ll be creating our final repeating pattern.
7. Go to “Edit” > “Fill”. This will open up the Fill dialog box where we can choose what kind of content to fill our new file with.
8. In the “Use” drop-down menu, select “Pattern”. This will tell Photoshop that we want to fill our new file with a repeating pattern.
9. Choose the pattern you created in step 5 from the menu and click “OK”. Your new file should now be filled with your repeating pattern!
