These are some Photoshop patterns (.pat) I made for my own use in doing CC recolors, which I've uploaded for anyone else who finds them useful. I find them helpful when making additional recolors to match a particular pack. The link below is to my Google Drive folder where I'll upload more patterns as I make them. (It takes a little while to do each one, as I trace them all by hand from item textures.) Most of them are pretty large for quality purposes, so you'll probably have to dial them down to <20%-ish. The first batch: - Victorian Narrow Wall: from the "Narrow Victorian" wallpaper patterns in the Vampires pack
- Victorian Wall: from the "Victorian" wallpaper patterns in the Vampires pack + some base game content
- Paranormal Damask: Seen on some of the furniture items in the Paranormal pack
- Paranormal Trellis: Seen on some of the furniture items in the Paranormal pack
- Paranormal Diamonds: Seen on some of the furniture items in the Paranormal pack
Download: Google Drive
TOU: These are EA/Maxis patterns and not originals, so I don't particularly care about credit/linkbacks, but if you want to point people back to this thread so they can grab these too, that'd be cool.

Added: Separate Photoshop Pattern files for the different parts of the trellis pattern from Paranormal.
It's easy to make the multicolored version of this pattern using the files. I've uploaded a PSD example you can use, or just follow these instructions:
- Create a new pattern layer and select one of the Paranormal Trellis patterns
- Resize as needed
- Make 3 duplicates of this layer (4 pattern layers in total)
- Change each of the duplicates to another part of the pattern: the trellis, dots, small petals, and big petals
- Make a Solid Color layer for each pattern layer and move each one right above its respective pattern layer in the Layers panel
- On each Solid Color layer, right-click and select Create Clipping Mask; this clips the solid color to the pattern right below it
- Easily change each part of the pattern by clicking the Solid Color layers and selecting new colors
This is how I make the trellis color patterns when I use them in CC. You can build the pattern right onto your texture layer when editing, or prepare it in a separate document, flatten the layers, and paste it into your texture where you need it.
