Hi! Yes. I'm still here. No. I didn't get lost in a snowbank somewhere. :-) We actually didn't get as much snow as originally thought (maybe 8 or 9"?) so that's not bad compared to some of you who have gotten 2 feet or more! Anyhoo... On to chevron or zigzag, whichever you prefer to call it.

I think this pattern may be similar to the zebra print in that you either like it or you don't, or am I wrong about that? I like it and, as you can see by the photos in this post, it can be incorporated in pretty much any style in a variety of ways.

The black and white graphic print adds an unexpected punch to these traditional pillows.
This lovely room has been all over blogland, so I thought I should join in! :-) The chevron pillow is a very simple addition to this room, but it just wouldn't be the same without it.

Here they've combined 4 colors in a chevron rug for a softer, but still colorful, look.
