RFBrazell ... when doing an 8 point Kaleido, you need eight repeats of the fabric. A OBW is 6 points, so six repeats. Likewise 4 for 4PP. So how much depends on your repeat length.
A pattern repeat of atleast 12" works best. 24" repeat will give you a lot more variation on your results. And if you want it bigger and more kaleidos, in each case, you just buy multiples.
My OBW was a 12" repeat. I used about 1-2/3 repeats and the finished size is 41"x67". Here, have a peak!!!
