Dina, another (native) Texan here lol, must be the weather this morning, cool and overcast wishing for rain.
I made a Chevron quilt king size that I enter in our recent Fall Fair won 2nd place on it, and made it with only two colors, turq. and white, and must say it was a fun quilt to do. Now to my point, I used the pattern that Jenny from Missouri Star Quilts gave a tute on, made the quilt, easy, fast and fun. You might want to go to Missouri Star Quilt You Tube tutes, and check it out if you do not have all of your fabric cut yet.
(It was a Christmas gift for a dear friend, and I sent it to her early because of her health, done in her favorite colors. She loves it, reminds her of Native American designs and she is into that theme.)

chevron quilt
I am presently constructing a chevron quilt that call for 3 charm packs. The pattern can be found at Moda Bakeshop; Zip-Zag Baby quilt. It calls for 3 solid color charm packs, but I am using a solid material cut into 5" squares and 3 of the same charm packs. This quilt does not use triangles. Here is a picture of my work in progress:

I have seen the Missouri Star video. I had forgotten about it. I will go check it out. Thanks.

Oh Susan, I like your quilt! Thanks for the picture and telling me where to look at the pattern. I liked the one there too. I have not actually cut much fabric, still deciding here, but I think it is time to jump in and see what I end up with. I don't have a pattern, figured I would just start making those half square triangles and see what happened. (Those triangles don't scare me anymore....famous last words!!)
