    Default Update to "Is it possible to enlarge this block"

    My block is 24" (finished). Thanks to all who helped me figure out how to enlarge the pattern from Carol Doan's free pattern. I think this will be the start of a medallion quilt....

    Wow this is pretty. I also love the middle block. Can you share the measurements for your square? I think it makes a pretty wall hanging.

    This will certainly be a beautiful quilt with that medallion in the center. You did a great job enlarging it and picking out the fabric. I too love that middle block and am wondering if that was why you wanted to enlarge the original block .... so you could use that "snowflake" in the center? No matter, it turned out great!!!

    Thanks all! The batik snowflake IS the reason I wanted to enlarge the block! I have 5 of them left, and I am trying to find ways to use them. I "believe" they are Hoffman batik, but there is no ID on the piece I have left.
    Each block is 8" finished. i may add a small border to this one and use it as a table topper....but I really want to use this as the beginning of a medallion quilt....
