How to recolor default patterns in Adobe Illustrator

Adobe Illustrator offers an array of default patterns to use in your work. However, it isn’t straight forward to recolor it. To so, open the pattern and DOUBLE CLICK on the pattern you want to change.

The following should show up. The Pattern Options Panel and the pattern becoming isolated. There should be a square over the pattern, and the rest is faded out.

Select the objects in the square only, and you can recolor it to any thing you want.

The pattern should change color too in the Pattern Options Panel.

I hope that helps! Happy Creating!
