Check out the log cabin variation on quiltercache.com.
It is similar to the courthouse steps. dreamboat http://community.webshots.com/user/dreamboat116 "Christina in Ok" wrote in message ... Where do I find a pattern for the Courthouse steps?

Courthouse Steps is a straightforward variation of Log Cabin, Christina.
Think of your original centre squa then, instead of going from side 1 to side 2 to side 3 to side 4, you go from side 1 to side 3 to side 2 to side 4. It is very useful indeed, because it is a Log Cabin variation which can be made symmetrical. As to the colour distribution, that does depend on the final effect you want. As a rough trial that you can do quickly: draw a normal square grid, and draw in the diagonals to those squares. Those quarters can represent the quarters in the Courthouse Steps pattern, so you can colour them in and see what pattern you like. You will see that this can make many interesting secondary patterns. HTH .. In message , Christina in Ok writes Where do I find a pattern for the Courthouse steps?

My Courthouse Steps quilt came from "A log cabin Notebook by Mary Ellen
Hopkins. It seems to be slightly different than the patterns posted because the three squares in the middle of mine are all the same size. Here's the link, if you want to look: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/momiix...&.dnm=3614.jpg If that doesn't work, click on sig, then finished quilts. Hope that helps.

Does Eleanor Burns have a book called The Courthouse Step? Seems to me to be among my books some place. I can almost visualize the cover. If my legs are strong enough tomorrow I will look before I go to my exercise room.
