Default Resizing Double Wedding Ring Block

I am needing a 12.5" Double Wedding Ring pattern. The one I am working on is turning out to be too large. Could the pattern be resized on the copy machine? Or do you know of a smaller version? Thank you very much.

You can't resize on a copy machine, unless you first remove the seam allowance from all pieces, copy & reduce, then add the seam allowance back on. Marti Michel's templates are for a 12"

Yes, PaperPrincess is correct. You can resize any pattern using photocopy but you have to first eliminate the seam allowances. You don't want THAT to be increased or decrease!
