I have a paper piecing pattern that makes a 6 inch block. I want to make it a 12 inch block. I'm thinking I select copy the pattern at 200% to get twice the size? It's not a pattern found in EQ or Foundation Factory that I can resize using those programs or can I?

It sounds like 200% would be right. I'm not sure about the other programs tho. Sorry.

here is a site that has a conversion calculator for blocks that require more calculations than this one. 200% is correct for this one but if you wanted it to be 8x8 this site would do the math for you

If you use your Easy Draw and draw the pattern, you can then color it, print it and the pattern in any size just like any other block--whether in the library or not.
