v3 launched with a major new section… Patterns. We knew that you loved finding great colors and arranging them in color palettes… so we guessed that you might want something to do with those palettes (Seeing as you’ve already created more than 3,400 different patterns in 2 days, I think we guessed right). We launched with just a couple dozen patterns to color but hope to add hundreds more over time. Create a Pattern or Browse the Patterns that have already been added.
