    That would give you a SIAS effect.

    You could do all the QSTs in two colours/fabrics or could go with multi colours/fabrics,
    but would take more planning re placement.

    Or go back to the simplicity of alternating blocks and your focus squares?

    Hmmm. . . that's a good idea. I'm going to have to work on that. Let the idea germinate for a while.

    Yes, I know how to google and will get 4,000 hits. I was hoping for some ideas that didn't include spending several hours at the computer only to find a pattern that's very hard or otherwise not that doable
