    Default Fabric pattern

    I'd like to achieve similar effect like the one on attached graphics.
    I've found a related tutorial on Alien Skin's forum (where the picture is from), but that is for PS which I'm not familiar with at all.

    Do you know a way in Xara to get that fabric pattern with little stitches (white) and dots (blue and red)?

    I only spent about 5 minutes on this, but you could experiment with the fill tool. I used 2 different 3 colour fills, one for the background and one for the heart.

    Done roughly/quickly but shows that with a little time you should be able to do exactly what you want.
    Used crossh2 fills, bevels, clones, transparencies.

    To take off some of the crispness I made a bitmap copy then used the photo editor and reduced the sharpness to -5.

    That's cool, Drifter!
    Congrats and thank you both for the answers!

    Where can I find crossh2 fills?
    I can't see it in the Fill Gallery.
