Default Directional Fabric that is Printed off kilter :(

I need some advice. I’m just in the process of cutting out a quilt from a kit I bought. The quilt kit picture shows the “lines” of the fabric running horizontally in the quilt wherever it’s used and it looks good. However, the printing on the fabric that came in the kit is skewed so much I don’t know of a way to cut it other than cross grain, fussy cutting, that will keep the lines even remotely level so that it doesn’t look bad. What would you do with it? Here’s a picture of what I mean. I need to cut 49 pieces 3”x10.5” with the lines running the length of the piece. If you envision the WOF folded, the other side of the fold isn’t as wonky. Even if I cut it so the lines run vertically, they’ll have a drunken �� look to them. Thanks in advance...
