Welcome to the board from Southern California!!

There are many many patters for queen size quilts. You can also enlarge the pattern if it is and easy one.

Welcome from one more Colorado quilter. I have to agree that often the patterns I like are more for lap size than for queen size. If I can, I put them into EQ7 and enlarge from there... adding more blocks or extending the design.

Welcome from NC! Can you just add borders to get the size you want?

Welcome From Kentucky...you can always make more blocks or add sashings or borders to increase the size of the quilt

If what you are looking for is more drape over the edge of the bed, you can always add a border or two

Welcome from another from Colorado. I'm over in Thornton. Being new to quilting I am not a pro to answer your question but this is the place to come for questions. Look under the links, patterns section and you may find a bunch listed. Another idea is to find a block you like and figure out how big you want the quilt to be and figure out how many blocks you need plus the border. That seems to be the easiest. Don't forget to check out the Block of the month, week section. There are two Block of the Months going on that are great.
