The 3 types of the "Zig-Zag" Pattern

The zigzag pattern has been the talk of the town for some time now! 
But did you know there are actually 3 different KINDS of this pattern?!

CHEVRON, HERRINGBONE, and the FLAMESTITCH

Chevron - This pattern comes to a "V". Our favorite places to use this are in a backsplash or on wood floors. We brought life to this dining room with this fun pattern!
Herringbone - Placing rectangles in a staggered zig-zag pattern. It's often found in tweed clothing but has made it's way to kitchens and floors in many homes! See a few ways we incorporated it below:
Flamestitch - This is a zig zag pattern with lots of "peaks", and different gradients of color. It is an age old motif that has been used in many countries. We used it in these curtains and LOVED the end result!


We want to know what YOUR favorite zig-zag pattern is!! Which one would you use the most?
