Mimi Sharon, here is where I see your repeat, the orange circles, there should be one more where the picture cuts off right near the edge. on the right side. How many lengthwise repeats do you have?

I have 6 of those repeats from end to end. There are three repeats across the fabric. Am I good to go or should I choose another fabric?

so you need to figure out how many you have to get the biggest pieces cut, I have marked the repeat on what is an easy repeat, how many blue snails do you have down the edge?

you just need 6 of them Sharon, if you have a full 6 repeats lengthwise, you can cut your fabric in half lengthwise, so you have two piece each with the 6 repeats,

woohoo, going to cut now, lengthwise first, then the repeats. Have I told you "I love you?" I do, mean it!

do I need to go buy another rule?

Hugs

so the cut edges are up and down and the salvage are on the sides, the red is the first cut line, the pink are the repeats, (no they are not even. )

is the tirangle a 60 degree one? check it with the mark on your other ruler, and if it isn't you can use the one with the 60 degree mark. it is hard to tell from here,

I will be back, I have to pick up Dh from work, I will make him drive home and I can use my phone, no pictures until I get back home though.

some of you will have repeats like this, you want to cut as many as you can and still have it manageable with the fabric that you have. (different colors are for different repeats types, but you would want to cut on the pink, it will save a lot of time and scraps in the long run.,

Oh, dang, Cutie~ I'm posting a pic of my fabric on here tomorrow so you can help me with all the repeat confusion. You rock!!!!

Okay - I've got up my nerve to cut (tear) down the middle and I'm headed to go do it before I back out :).
Thanks CB. You're making this much less painless than I thought it would be. :) :)
