If you have an 8" square and you want to make it a 12" block you can add 2" sashing or patch work to each side and that will make it 12". Don't forget about your seam allowance. If you 8" square is actually 8 1/2 before adding anything then you will want 2 1/2" borders around it. Then the block will be 12 1/2" unfinished and 12" once sewn into the quilt.
