I got carried away with coloring Dresden. Mine has 20 blades-lol
For fun, I played with your idea of taking out a row on each side of the diagonals, to see how it looks. For my tastes, the center area still looked like too big of a mass of colored squares, so I made every other diagonal use the background fabric. With background fabric between the colorful diagonals, you can really *see* the diagonals, rather than focusing on a large mass forming a rough square where the diagonals all cross.
