Spanish Tile Book,
By
This review is from: Spanish Tile Designs in Full Color (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This book gives a wide variety of authentic Spanish tile designs - with no writing. The pictures are printed on only one side, quality, hi gloss paper, and is truly a beautiful book - far exceeded my expectations. I purchased it as reference because I was designing a Spanish tile design quilt. Very helpful.

spanish tiles,
This review is from: Spanish Tile Designs in Full Color (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
The whole book has nothing but photographs oftile designs, and that was what I was looking for. Our multi-disabled children are studying Spain and we used ideas from that book to paint tiles. Thank you very much.

Beautiful Tile Designs,
This review is from: Spanish Tile Designs in Full Color (Dover Pictorial Archive) (Paperback)
This book has some very beautiful designs in it; I only wish it came with a cd or website code so that I could have digital copies of them. As such, you'll probably have to use tracing paper or a scanner to manipulate the images. Other than that, the printing quality is good and the designs are easy to make out.
