    finish size of this quilt is 74 x 74 inches,
    since I was sewing it none stop for about a week, I think that I will take a break and think about making it larger or just finish it as it is. I like the way it looks on bed but it is a bit too small for a Q size bed.
    thanks for your comments

    To your question:

    Enlarging it depends on the how you plan to use this pretty little quilt. You don't say how big it is now, so I'm guessing you think it's a bit smaller than what you pictured in your mind. But if it's made for a baby/child's quilt or wall hanging, it's probably just right. If not, then go ahead and make it rectangular. i'd be very interested in seeing how you do it!

    Very nice! Your quilt is very balanced. Great use of scraps to make a beautiful quilt. I would like to make one also -- but would make it rectangular by starting out with a rectangle instead of square.

    Scrappy's are always my favorite. Your design is beautiful. I have a collection of 3" squares from a club and now you gave me a great idea of creating one. Good for leaders and enders. Thanks for sharing.
