what I did was take the image you posted and tried to quickly crop it to be a repeatable tile then first added it to a group as a group image file

The using the same group applied the image using the matterial bitmapplus included in the distribution

bitmapplus.prj right click save as this is not zipped

 

These methods need some tweaking but putting out and idea for you to try
