Howard Lyons, Boyd Raeburn, and Gerald Steward and the group, calling themselves "Toronto Derelicts", who burst upon the science fiction scene in 1954.
Patterson did all of the eight covers of Boyd Raeburn's A Bas, as well as covers for Canadian Fandom. She also did illustrations and covers for P. Howard Lyons Ibidem. The two soon married.
