MTS has given great instructions. A note, the "repeat" in the pattern might be 6" 12" 18" or some other number. To determine, find a flower edge or center, some point that you can identify, and mark it. Go down the edge to a repeat of that point and mark it. If you measure that, every repeat will be that size. I do turn under and press a seam allowance on the first piece, then slide it up or down (a bit away from the edge of the second piece) and match. The match on the repeat might be several inches in from the edge! It can waste a bit of fabric, but if you are picky, it is worth it. I haven't glued before, but I will file that away MTS, for future reference, it is a good tip. Linda
