What is Patternico?

Patternico lets you add icons, emojis or your own images, arrange them by size, rotation and spacing, and generate a repeating tile that joins up perfectly on every side. It runs in the browser, needs no account, and exports your seamless pattern as a free PNG.

Pros: what Patternico does well

  • Truly seamless tiles
  • Use your own images
  • No sign-up

Cons: where it falls short

  • PNG export only
  • Limited fine control over layout

Who Patternico is for

Designers and makers who need a quick repeating background.

Who can skip it

Surface pattern designers who already work in Illustrator.
