increase pattern size

Block?
Can you post block name or a picture? Many blocks are published in multiple sizes. Since you have a 6 inch block. As mentioned by JulienM1, 180 blocks would give you a nice 72x90 inch quilt.

I love the patterns and books that give multiple sizes. I know I could do the math, but it so nice to the calculations already done. Hint Hint! It is true that sometimes what is an added draw to a particular book or pattern is just that!

Also an important thing to remember is as you increase size you increase fabric needed. In a 7 x 9 setting (63 blocks) if you increase block number say one block on the side and one on the bottom you increase the number of blocks by 17 over 25% and would need that much extra fabric.
