I would like to use a carbon fiber background image inside of a vector shape in inkscape.
But I can’t seem how to either import the carbonfiber.jpg as a pattern or to intersect the raw .jpg with the vector shape. Any ideas?

Thanks! Worked like a charm
I am still pretty green and don’t see myself getting too crazy with my project, so Inkscape is OK for now. But I will keep your comments in mind if/when I grow my site.
As best I remember from my Inkscape days:
If you haven’t used Inkscape much, let me give you a bit of advice: Invest in Corel Graphics Suite, Xara, or Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop instead!
Inkscape is great for a free program and my hat is off to the devs, but I was never able to get bitmap embedding to work properly in Inkscape, which was a deal-killer for me.
I hate to resurrect an old thread, but for the benefit of searchers, I wanted to follow up and say that Inkscape has apparently fixed the embedding issues in .48.
