Hello..

O gave me an idea and I went with it; all created in GIMP.

I messed with the ruffles more and redid the ones I had posted before. Was actually trying to get them to work on a 3D dress. The dress looks alright I need to figure out the mesh for the arms my pattern without ruffles looks bad. Anyways.. a bit off my topic.

I went ahead a created some ruffled curtains with that pattern i had and here is my result.

Those really turned out pretty, Liana. Very nice.

If you would like your colors to be brighter, you could lower the opacity on the gradient layer.

Here is an example. The upper gradient was left at 100% opacity, the lower one is at 50%.
