Cobblestones are pretty variable. Bricks, rocks, patterning, etc. I use a couple of differernt styles. Gluing lentils in patterns works pretty well. After dry, use spackle to fill in between. I also use cork like you can buy at the DIY for making pin up boards. It comes in sheets and I cut bricks and place them. I then use spackle between the bricks as filler. I've seen sidewalks that were concrete, poured in sections, and cobblestobnes or pavers. So it is pretty simple.
Another way is to use drywall. Peel the paper off and score the gypsum in your pattern. Or pour plaster into a form and do the same type of scoring to get your patterns.
