Repper what you sew!

Sometimes clearing out your inbox sets your day out in a whole new (and very exciting) direction.

This morning, for instance, I finally made time to have a look at a link sent to me by a work buddy late last month. And, in the space of five minutes my mind was well and truly blown.

Repper takes an image and lets you turn it into a pattern. I trialed the demo version and here are the results...

And this: became this:And, to give you an idea of the versatility of Repper, throwing this in:

Thanks for your praise!
Great to hear you like patterning with Repper. Let us know when you get some patterns printed with Spoonflower or otherwise; we are curious and love to feature interesting results on our blog!

Cheers,

The patterns made from the second two images make sense, but I don't understand how the first two produced such divergent colours! Please explain. That's what's making my head explode, even though I think it has excellent potential.
