Terry: To make it larger you could make the blocks larger, as you noted, or you could add more blocks to each row, or you could put borders on the quilt. There are many ways to increase the size of a quilt and each subtally changes the look. For instance a larger block will make the design look even more modern, smaller will create a sort of plaid design and boarders will frame the design. Thats part of what is so much fun about quilting, the same design can be modified for almost limitless looks. Also, don't forget color changes.
