    I would split them into their respective colours to see how many of each you have and then if you have equal amounts of each work out your own pattern or if varying amounts just do a random pattern

    In this situation I lay all the tiles out on the worktop and with the aid of the customer start to sort them out. Once done addy up and fix. That way the customer has agreed the pattern and has no come back.
