Decks, Patios, Porches and Docks - old garage slab -> patio conversion

Hi all.
I have an old concrete slab on the middle of the backyard.
It use to be a 2 car garage.
My wife was thinking about conversion from ugly square concrere slab into beautifull brick patio.

I am wondering, is it possible to put a bricks over existing slub and what prep. work should I do.
Can I trim eges by cutting slab and pouring concrete to round existing structure E - like into something C - like

thanks.

Now, this "old slab" -- what shape is it in, structurally. Sure, you can put bricks on a concrete slab, but if the slab is all cracked up, you are wasting your time and bricks. If the slab is sound (and looks like it will last another 50 to 100 years), then cutting it into the shape that you want and bricking it over is certainly an option. But, if that slab was old when Mr.Roosevelt was walking softly but carrying a big stick, ...

Point is, you have to determine if the old slab is worth keeping, or would you be better off simply tearing it out and starting fresh.
