You can easily change your background pattern from tiled... ...to seamless.

Here I have my pattern on its own layer. I put it against a white background so it would be easier to see for this tutorial.

I make a copy of the Pattern layer. Then I choose Edit>Transform>Flip Vertical. While holding the shift key I use the move tool to drag the copy down stopping when the two layers meet. Then I link and merge the layers Pattern and Pattern copy.

I make a copy of the Pattern layer. Then I choose Edit>Transform>Flip Horizontal. While holding the shift key I use the move tool to drag the copy to the right stopping when the two layers meet. I link and merge the layers Pattern and Pattern copy. And now I have a pattern that will show seamlessly. You can apply this technique to any image you want to use as a background. Depending on the image you choose, it might only be necessary to flip the copy horizontally or vertically but not both.
