Ok. Here is my suggestion. Take lots of the flower head pins and mark multiple identical points (like she says to do on the 4 corners) just down the length of the fabric sections and also in the center. I think you can salvage it if you get multiple points to match in your repeat. Even if they don't match exactly, the patterns will still be cool. I love OBWs. I just have so many other projects to do that my yardage for the next three just sits and waits!
