Photoshop has a number of patterns. To select patterns choose Edit > Fill.
Select Pattern from the drop down list.
To apply a pattern, click any of the thumbnails.
Click ok.
Note: you can also create your own patterns. This helps in saving time as you do not need to create the same object or shape over and over.
