Seamless Toile Patterns



I love me a good toile....this probably comes as no surprise.  The only problem is that matching the seams on such a detailed pattern is hair-pulling frustration on a stick.  I have tried and given up many times.  But while looking for fabrics for a new (non sim) project, I stumbled upon a couple of toile swatches that seemed like they just might actually work.

Voila!

I finally have a traditional toile and a large scale floral toile that are actually seamless.  There is also a small vintage floral that doesn't have anything to do with toile but I just happened to like it. These patterns are all one color channel but they shift rather nicely, as you will see in the pictures.  I hope you enjoy them in your game as much as I have!

The Walking Dead: Hershel's Farm

I have been watching AMC's The Walking Dead a lot over the holiday break.  We recorded the marathon and gorge ourselves on at least 3 episodes a night.  So as soon as I saw Hershel's gorgeous farmhouse, I knew I had to build it. In the interest of full disclosure, I will say it is not an exact replica.  There are some things the game simply cant do.  And I really had to guess a bit at the interior lay out.  But I hope it does give the same feel as the original and your Sims will have better luck living here than Hershel's family and Rick's group.






Hershel's Farm includes:
4 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
formal dining
laundry
garden
barn ( zombie free)
survivor camp 
$118k on 60x60 lot
NO CC
cows and chickens are store content that is not needed for lot to function
