I tried to send this yesterday but it did't appear in main section so don't know where it is but has anyone done this block? The instructions I have don't show the placement of the 4 fabrics only 2 so I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me with this?
I'm trying to do a table topper. Got all the pieces cut out but it just doesn't seem right. Got the pattern from the quiltblock library.

The instructions show 4 colors 14 patches twice and 8 patches twice. the instructions diagram shows only A&B true but not enough of them to make the amount they said to cut out. Cant find the original instructions on quiltblocklibrary.com which is where I got it originally.

I searched in Yahoo and it had two colors, looked a lot like Jacob's Ladder.

I found a 4 color variation at http://www.nativeamericanstarquilts....gToChicago.jpg
It's not a free pattern although it looks fairly easy to figure out. They want $1.50 plus $1.00 handling charge.
What size do you want the block to be?

The diagram shows 2x2 I assume they mean inches and the next one is 2 3/8 x 2 3/8. Then the picture shows 14 squares of the first measurement and 8 patches each of the second one but no written instructions.
