This block is a variation of the classic Courthouse Steps design, which itself is a variation of the well-known Log Cabin block.

Whether you prefer a bold, high-contrast look or a softer, scrappy feel, this block adapts beautifully to different styles. Plus, it’s a great way to experiment with color placement and fabric patterns.
This block can be used on its own for a striking quilt design or combined with other blocks to create a more intricate layout.
