The Mosaic collection is a series of themed mosaic project books covering the basic techniques of this fashionable craft. Each book is packed with all the information needed to get started and focuses on six designs for the home and garden. The combination of strong design and the strong colours favoured in North Africa is an interesting combination and the author has chosen the most successful patterns and bright colours to create six projects that reflect this style. Projects include brightly coloured stepping stones in azure and turquoise for the garden, rich red blood and grass green highly glazed ceramic tesserae combine in a delicate lattice design to make a skirting board. An elaborate table top using brightly coloured glass pieces, and a mirror frame in midnight blue and gold glass are also featured.
