No, MIJul, I do not believe I would have enough fabric if I straightened it. It is so close that the cut is almost into the selvedge on the first part of the cuts. But it is cut into 7 1/4" squares which are cut twice diagonally, so the design will not show. But I haven't looked at the striped fabric yet. I believe the striped has to be straight. I am beginning to think I won't be purchasing kits any more in the future. I'd rather purchase plenty of extra for any oops.
