Mirror Repeat Patterns




Firstly, I selected the Marquee Tool from my tool box and selected Fixed Size and changed the size of the image to 5cm x 5cm. 

I then changed my canvas size by pressing Image > Canvas Size and entered a width of 25cm x 40cm > OK.

Thirdly, I selected View> Snap to Grid and selected the second column in my design. I chose to use the Snap to Grid setting as it makes selecting the column a lot more accurate. 

Finally, I flipped the image horizontally or vertically to create a mirror effect by going to Edit > Transform > Flip Horizontal, and repeated this on all columns in my design to create a mirrored effect of the whole image.
