Making a seamless repeat of a random pattern

…If the swatch you want to use is a random repeat, or not quite a repeat, but…a random pattern, let me show you how you can put this into repeat.…This time we're going to use the clone stamp tool.…I'm going to go ahead and click on it and…Alt click some place on the page to copy the background color.…Because the first thing I want to do is get rid of any of…these little half images around the outsides.…So any little circle here, motif, that's not complete,…I'm going to get rid of because it's going to cause trouble down the road.…

So, let's start by getting the right brush going.…Normally, when I use the clone stamp,…I prefer to use a brush that's about 50% hardness.…But in the case of this particular pattern because the lines are so…crisp, I think I want to go with a much harder brush.…So I've got this up to maximum hardness for this particular one.…So I'm going to Alt or Option click in this blue area to get just some blue and…I'm going to paint out these little pieces of circle that are incomplete.…

So Alt click to get some blue, and we'll paint out the circle.…
