Crossroads in Multi-Color

I must admit that I have been looking forward to doing this ever since RSC13 started! It's so fun this month to have 20+ blocks to play with. My plan is to have 80 blocks at year end to make 4 quilts for Project Linus. My chapter's preferred size has  grown over the years to be 48" x 60" so these will be right on.

I laid out diagonal stripes of color first.
Then I tried a zig zag or chevron effect.
I think they both look great! I'm looking to forward to adding another color to the mix in May... and get really happy when I think of all the colors still to come.

I'm linking up to ScrapHappy Saturday@soscrappy.
