Pro Tips

💡

Use Linen weave for summer fabrics, Twill for denim looks, Satin for formal wear previews.

💡

Try different warp and weft colors for chambray effects. Same color for both gives solid fabric look.

💡

Click Apply Weave once; after that, changes to the weave, colors, intensity and scale show on the canvas as you make them.

How do I…

How do I make a flat design look woven?

Pick a Weave Type, such as Plain, Twill, Satin or Denim, and click Apply Weave. After that, changes show on the canvas as you make them.

How do I get a chambray effect?

Choose different warp and weft thread colours. The same colour for both gives a solid fabric look.

How do I make the weave more or less visible?

Use Intensity for how strongly the texture reads, and Pattern Scale for the size of the weave.
