Thanks to HP, MetalKat, and Delphy ... I've finally been able to wrap my brain around making custom content! Here are five patterns from my collection ... I tried to grab ones that I hadn't really seen or felt were under-represented. These all work well in any of the categories, from clothes to furniture to walls!
Here's a preview .gif that I can't believe I actually figured out how to make ... the nicer hi-res images are below!

Included are:
"Retrometry" ~ A retro-geometric pattern, binned under geometric.
"Rockin' Paisley" ~ I haven't seen enough paisleys and I love them, so here's my version. Binned under abstract.
"Simple Dove" ~ I mostly use this one for clothing, but it makes a dramatic focus wall or interesting upholstery, too! Binned under abstract.
"Grunge Flowers" ~ This is my attempt to make a vintage wallpaper. Instead of dirty, I tried to make it look worn. I really like it on clothing and upholstery. Binned under abstract.
"Flower Pop" ~ I love this one for kid's clothes, furniture, and walls. Binned under abstract.
I've never actually done any graphics editing or anything like this before, so this was a huge (but fun!) challenge for me. The pictures at the bottom are labelled so you can pick and choose what you like from the .zip file. Please enjoy! I'ma go play my game now (^_^)

Install Instructions
Quick Guide:
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
