For a slow learner would you recommend Gimp or Inkscape for pattern design. If you feel there is something easier please comment. Sorry if this question has been asked several times before. Thanks, Dave

Dave,

   Personally, I prefer Inkscape for most pattern making but if it is portraits, then I believe GIMP is the preferred program. They are both free and both have excellent tutorials, both here in The Village by Travis and a lot on You tube. download them both and work a little with each and find which one you like best. I will be happy to step you through some if you would like me to.

Hi Dave, I would recommend Inkscape, I've made lot's of patterns with it and I'm still learning new things on it,

It's bigger than My brain box LOL  :shock:  :lol:, You can do a lot with it! And Travis has done some great tutorials

on here for the program, You can upload free clip art and play around with it in Inkscape to make things,

I confess, I think the scrolling is much easier than the pattern making.  Especially  portraits.  It is a whole different talent, which I do not possess.  SO MANY steps to making a pattern, my eyes roll back and I start frothing at the mouth after about five minutes....

 

God bless all you good pattern makers. :D
