I created a seamless pattern on a 3x3 inch artboard and used the clipping mask. I select the entire pattern and go to pathfinder and select crop and then drag and drop in the swatches panel. When I select crop the stroke color disappears. Why is the stroke color disappearing? What am I doing wrong?

The Crop function in the Pathfinder panel crops filled paths, and always removes strokes.

I realize that this may not answer all your questions, but I hope it's a start. Please feel free to ask as many as necessary.

Thank you for the video link. I appreciate it, but I am not using the pattern tool option for this particular design. The video only addresses the pattern tool and how to use it. The video does not address making a seamless pattern.

Hi again when you make anything yourself first expand all effects using object > expand appearance and try again...regards
