Do anyone use an IPad to make patterns?

[AkJim]

I was wondering if anyone here works on an IPad to make there patterns. If so what apps do you use?

I seen where some use gimp but that is for a computer, I’m looking for something to work with an IPad 

thanks for your input

Hi Jim, I don't but there are a lot of apps and programs you can use for the iPad.  I know Steve Good has noted on his blog that he uses the iPad and Apple pencil to create a lot of his work. Since you just joined the forum, I am not sure if you have found Steve Good's blog and patterns yet - on the off chance you are not familiar, I will post a link to his site: http://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com

This link will take you to the search I did on his site for posts mentioning iPad - it should give you some of his posts that relate to using to create patterns:

Thank you, I’m trying to make windows and door pattern for a light house I’m making.

I believe Steve Good uses an I Pad for some of his patterns. You may want to write him and ask. He is super friendly and helps when he can.

Hi AkJim,

When I bought my wife  and iPad 2 years past I also loaded a copy of 'Procreate' on it. This is an app for creating art. I also bought the Procreate extra add on features, I can't remember how much they were. I also bought a book 'MAKE GREAT ART ON YOUR iPAD by Alison Jardine. I got this in our local bookstore (The Works, reduced from £14.99 to £5.00).

Other apps for drawing/painting are :-

ArtRage, ArtStudio and Tayasui Sketches Pro.

I have not tried any of these last 3 apps as the 'Procreate' does what I want.

Hope this helps.
