Pattern Makers as Copycats of Nature?

What does it mean to make something? When we make a pattern out of some materials, aren't we just recreating a pattern that already exists in our physical world, in nature? Are pattern makers really just copycats? We are, but there's something more to our abilities...we can arrange and rearrange patterns to result in entirely new configurations.
