    Hello, I recently got a book for Twist-and-Turn Bargello Quilts. There is some beautiful quilts in this book. The one I really want to make is not Queen size, so how do I add size and still keep the design. Thanks for all your help. LOL. God Bless. Happy Stitchin.

    Draw it out. Use graph paper. Or use EQ.

    So are you wanting to go from a full to a queen or from a twin to a queen or from one even smaller?

    To add size you would just add more rows/columns as needed and just continue the pattern as you wish.

    As suggested above, drawing it out on graph paper or in a quilt design program would be really helpful for determining how you want to expand it. You can even do the graphing in a spreadsheet program like Excel.
