Well, you need at least 6 repeats in your fabric (or 8 if you plan to make your kaleidoscopes octogons) but if you want to make it bed sized you need a ton of fabric. I think I read in my book that you need something like 7 meters or close to that. Maybe someone who has made a big one can properly answer that question.
