Diagonally spilliting background of a Relative Layout

Hello all i want background of a layout as follows.

enter image description here

Now what i am doing is follows,

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
<item
    android:drawable="@color/blue_new">
</item>

<item>
    <rotate
        android:fromDegrees="45"
        android:toDegrees="0"
        android:pivotX="0%"
        android:pivotY="100%" >
        <shape
            android:shape="rectangle">
            <solid android:color="@color/white" />

        </shape>
    </rotate>
</item>

<item>
    <rotate
        android:fromDegrees="-45"
        android:toDegrees="0"
        android:pivotX="130%"
        android:pivotY="0%" >
        <shape
            android:shape="rectangle">
            <solid android:color="@color/white" />

        </shape>
    </rotate>
</item>

</layer-list>

Now i am partially getting what i want. If i remove third item, the rectangle is not reaching another end. Is there any other way to do it? Other then 9patch image? Can i dynamically calculate the pivotX and pivoty values of the second and third item? Or is there any other method to do so.

Thanks.
