Mosaic Help . . . . .?

Date May 18, 2010

It seems like all the introductionary books I have on mosaic craft emphasize breaking your own pieces to your specifications and creating something. Well the problem is irregular pieces aren’t often sold therefore (or easy to break yourself when you have a baby crawling around) I have many, many, many squares tiles and yet I see no ‘patterns’ or examples of how to use only square mosaic tiles in a pattern.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?
