Window Sill?
 
I know many of you will know the answer to this question. What is the name of the pattern that looks like you're looking through windows? Each block has a square and then a bottom sash and a side with a miter, which form the side of the window and the sill.

window sill?
 
Seems like it's called 'attic window'.

There are free patterns for it also.

I also know it as "Attic Windows".

Here is a link including patterns that don't have the dreaded "Y" seam

My Avatar is attic window. Not hard to do.

Yes, it is attic windows. So many names to remember, some just escape.

Thanks you Quilt Board. I knew you would have the answer.

Sounds like attic window, but I'm no expert.

Could be the "shadow box" you are thinking of.

Have a pattern of this and the slanted corner looks rather daunting. Has anyone been successful at this? Once saw a quilt in this pattern, and that specific corner was a sewn-in half-square triangle, w/ the matching colors of the "sills"!

Attics window. Pretty pattern.

I have done Attic Windows using the HST in the corner, rather than the set-in seam. It works great for solids and pretty well for prints. If you are using any kind of directional fabric it definitely shows.

Attic Window. I just happen to have some pics of one that is on display in my office.

Attic window. There are 2 different styles one has mitered corners and a newer one does not.
