Like the title of the picture says "squares" like 1" mosaic. You could work a center panel of any kind of tile, even hex, but you can't run straight lines with hex, so it would be necessary to switch to squares for that border design. Casey

Just print out that photo and figure out by what percentage you need to enlarge the image to get the size you want. Then print out the individual items enlarged by that percentage. Cut those elements out, and there's your pattern. A copy shop can help you with the math, and print it out to exactly your specs. Have several copies made, so there is more than one to cut up, just in case.

I looked at your link. This is not what I consider a beginner project. The instructions are pretty good, however, and certainly it's a very doable project. A method that I think is easier and less complicated: Threads magazine (#120, September, 2005) had an excellent article about how to use masking tape to copy any garment without taking the garment apart. You can buy that issue, if you want, or you may be able to find the issue at a library. See the link below for a sort of preview of how this works. If you can take the pants apart, that would be even better. Use a seam ripper to disassemble them gently (preserving the seam allowances) and use the pieces as the pattern or to make a pattern. Take note of how these have been sewn together as you take them apart. If these existing pants fit you well, you can also use the pieces as a guide to alter a purchased pants pattern. Adjusting the crotch seam always trips me up, but using a pattern you *know* fits correctly (your existing pants) as a guide would make that easier. A book about constructing pants would probably be helpful, just to give you an idea of the order of construction. I assume that you have sewn before, just not sewn clothing? I don't know that I would choose pants as my first garment project, but that's just me! Depends on how detailed these pants are - darts? waistband? belt loops? pockets? pleats? Every detail increases the complexity just a bit. CMC Here is a link that might be useful: Copy garment without disassemling it.

The picture linked below is from a thread on the lighting forum. Not sure if this is the effect you have, since it doesn't have prisms, but may be similar. So I think too that wall colour is not the issue. Your room sounds fabulous. I am not normally a white person but having seen the white room with the glossy white floor on Maria Killam's blog about how light colours do best in light rooms, I finally get it, and imagine it looks great - especially with that light fixture :-) Karin L Here is a link that might be useful: [Brown powder room[(https://www.houzz.com/photos/powder-room-traditional-bathroom-calgary-phvw-vp~48051)
