Hi Everyone,
I have just been given some very lovey sandstone paving (am just so over the moon, they are soooo lovely!)
But they are random sizes.. 900x600, 600x600, 600x300 & 300x300. and odd numbers.
I am looking for a free design programme so that I can map out on a plan where they go so that OH, doesn't bite my head off when I ask him to do it!
Does anybody know of a free drag & drop programme somewhere that I can input the sizes & quantities and play about with the design? - a bit like a jigsaw.
The ones I have found (Bradstone etc.) are great but don't take into account the random quantities that I have & are understandably trying to sell me their sizes/quantities rather than me using the sizes that I have been given.
I will have gaps where I will have to put gravel, but am so lucky to have been given the sandstone that I don't want them to go to waste.
any help will be very appreciated.

If you look on some of the garden design websites you should find something there that would do.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,

Squared paper from WHSmith might be easier by the time you've got a programme, installed it, set up the different tile shapes etc!0
