Default ? regarding Chevron

I want to use Chevron to make curtains to go with a baby quilt I am making. But the material I ordered won't work cuz I think the Chevron is going the wrong direction so I would have to seam the curtains in the middle to make them long enough.

When I am looking at some of the material, some descriptions say 'perpendicular to the salvedge' or 'goes with the salvedge'. I am looking at Riley Blake Chevron in medium green. Most is in 44/45" but I think I should have the 56". Can anybody help me figure out what I need to use so I don't have to seam the curtains. The dimensions of my window are 3x5 and but I want to go to the floor so it would be 3x7.

I feel really dumb not being able to figure this out. Does this link go from salvedge to salvedge? Is this what I want?

Thanks for any help or suggestions in the wording I need to look for.
