Thanks, Jane! I really appreciate you taking the time to practice the colors for me. I like both, and you are right, it doesn't seem to make a difference.

I think it would be called zig-zag. Maybe that is why you didn't find 3 color chevrons. I think it is a very bright aND atractive color combo.

That should look great whether you separate the colors or not. I love chevrons!

I would probably do white/blue/white/orange/white/blue/white/orange.... But that's just me. I like the bright of that orange a lot!

Looks great from here. Why wouldn't three colors work well?

I am close to figuring out if three work well...at least for me. Most chevron that I have seen have two colors or lots of colors. I don't want my first chevron to look....well, stupid.

Well, I have a bit more done, and now I am questioning it. It is very wild looking. Here, let me show you.
