Scaling up doubleweave blocks

Today I’ve been scaling up double-weave cloth with blocks.  My brief is to provide window treatments for a french window. Imagine a 3m drop 2m wide (approx), I’m looking to weave a small piece of the pattern full size.  Interesting. I will be warping and putting it on the loom tomorrow. I’m exploring the use of cramming and spacing to assist here too.
