Ya want things to stick!

The 'only' successful mosaic I have ever achieved is when myself and ex Mrs bought a random job lot of mixed square and rectangular thick quarry tiles for 100 m² floor. They arrived individually and randomly. Hundreds of the blighters.

My task was to figure out how to use them with minimum waste and an end interesting pattern, ie all laid on a diagonal with intersecting 90°, and inlaid patterns. 

Ok so I'm sitting on it right now.

But I'll take any instructions from you on this Luna aspect any day.  

(Mme Anderson has a lot to answer for  )

Best, Rich

[michael.h.f.wilkinson]

Pity about the missing bits. Very good detail captured.

 

[xtreemchaos]

thanks Rich, talking about tiles, I did the whole groundfloor of my house about 20 years ago and there just starting to come lose in places, I'm hoping to repair them but have a feeling that once I start Ill find more have come unstuck than I think so I keep putting it off . ill get the next moon mosaic right " fingers crossed. clear skys, charl.

[xtreemchaos]

thanks Michael, ive took the image of the missing tiles but forgot to move the scope while watching the tv, I wondered why I had 4 panes the same. clear skys , charl.

Now you know what lino is for :-)

[RichM63]

LoL, lino and parts of the house dating back to at least 1660, ...meah + lino was more expensive m² than the job lot of misc' ancient quarry tiles.  Now, anyone enjoy 'roofing'?

Charl, pity we are so far apart, I'd spend the time sorting or relaying your loose stuff in exchange for comprehensive mosaic lessons.

best wishes with your continued mosaics.

these are the secret holes where the clangers and the soup dragon live! ?
