In my recent tutorial, Creating tiles using Affine, especially of Leaves, I explained how to create tileable images using dead leaves (or any other similar object). I show here a selection of such tiled images, with four such tiles grouped to produce a seamless image. 

Before the tiled images, here is an example of a real patch of leaf litter taken just by holding the camera vertically of the woodland floor:

This is an example of a composite image of leaves to recreate a leaf-litter-like tiled pattern:

The following four images are each based on a single tree species, using about twenty leaves of different colours.

Firstly English Maple Acer campestre.

Next Cherry Prunus avium.

Now a garden shrub Guelder Rose Viburnum opulus.

And finally a strange Chinese relative of the conifers, the Ginkgo, Ginkgo biloba.

I have used these to form the basis of a set of table mats.

Yes, I love Affine in Affinity Photo. I use it all the time.

Corel Painter is great for seamless textures. You can paint with them, fill shapes and text with them, use them in 3D programs and create brushes that are seamless image lines that you can paint with (a feature I wish Affinity Photo has). You can paint along a line or curve seamlessly...
