Each project is demonstrated with step-by-step photographs, and close-up diagrams give added clarity to tricky stages. At-a-glance panels show the tools and materials you'll need, and actual-size photographs demonstrate the range of tiles necessary to complete the piece.Clear templates can be easily reproduced to the required size on graph paper or scaled up or down on a photocopier and include simple geometric designs, heart and flower motifs, and more elaborate birds, animals, and portraits.A core-techniques section teaches basic skills such as motifs, cutting and grouting tiles, and using colour, as well as working with a range of materials, from broken pottery and tesserae to beautiful millefiori tiles.Contents:
