This top view swatches fabric mockup is one of the simpler ways to present a printed logo or a textile pattern convincingly.
It’s a handy file for surface pattern designers and textile designers. Light prints on light fabric vanish; try the garment colour layer first before you change your artwork.
It’s also useful before a print run, to check how large the design should really be on the garment.
