I cut shorts in any number that was divisible by 3 (plus 1/2 inch seam allowance. For example, I would cut a shirt 9 1/2 by 6 1/2 and another 12 1/2 by 12 1/2 and another 3 1/2 by 12 1/2 etc. I cut a ton of shirts based on the size of the shirt design. Then I moved them around until they fit together. I will see if i can find a pix.
