Repeat printing is best understood as a kind of tiling, because fabrics are generally printed using rollers, which can be seen as large rectangles rolled into a cylinder; tiling also lends it's name to the branch of mathematics known as tessellation.
Fabric printing includes in the larger sense printed T-shirts, as well as the topic of screen printing, which in turn has an elegant interface with computers (both systems present information on a grid).
