Can we use a photo we take as fill pattern?

Going back to the original question.

Export you photo as jpeg image.  Copy the 'filename'.jpg file to 

C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\patterns

Then either refresh the pattern dock as below or restart Gimp. The pattern shows with the 'filename'.jpg  name.
