Creating Dashed Lines and Curves in Photoshop CS5

I have been making a lot of doll sewing patterns using Photoshop CS5.  I've been having a lot of trouble making the dashed seam lines actually look good.  I see other digital patterns for sale with perfect, uniform dash lines.  I searched everywhere online, including YouTube, to find a way to do it in CS5.  I found tutorials for the newer Photoshop and even Illustrator, but not CS5.  I came really close to just purchasing CS6 (on ebay for around $100) or the new CC for $9.99 a month (which I think is ridiculous because after a few years, you've spent hundreds of dollars on it, when I purchased CS5 for $40 when I was a student.)  Anyway, I FINALLY found the solution!  And now I am sharing it with you.  I have a YouTube video on it here .

Using PhotoShop for Designing a Quilt

Image
I often find fabric that I really like and I just can’t seem to picture how it would look in a quilt.  I have searched for quilting software that could easily drag photos of fabric into the blocks to see what it would look like, but only found really expensive software.  I decided to use PhotoShop. I found a quilt pattern that I really like by Janet Houts, found on Bear Creek Quilting Company, called Savoy.
