Check out these cool tile tapestry patterns from Heath Ceramics.  I’m partial to the flemish bond gunmetal (shown top left and below).  Heath Ceramics has a factory/kiln in Sausalito, California where they create these incredible tiles.  Their Tapestry Collection has three patterns: argyle, stitch, and flemish bond, which can be face-mounted in 12×12" squares.  Prices vary depending on the pattern, but if you’re looking for a specialty application, try the overstock tiles offered at 75% off retail. 

Heath Ceramics is a good company.  The price of their products reflect the actual costs of responsible U.S. production — it costs money to pay benefits and a fair wage, source locally, and manufacture quality products that last a lifetime.
