That's okay. That's what makes the circle of the skirt. If you watch the first video I posted, I think it will answer your questions. Could you give us a link to the pattern you are using? Or at least the name and designer of the pattern?
Edited to add: My first experience with a 10 degree ruler was the Spicy Spiral Table Runner. Making that pattern, you start with a longer cut, then move down the ruler to the next measurement and cut a shorter wedge, continuing until you get to the end of stripset. Then you turn what's left of the stripset and continue cutting shorter and shorter pieces. After sewing all these back together, you trim off the edges and bind. It was a great learning experience about how to use these fun, wedge rulers.
