Pattern Repeat 101. What is VR and HR? How much extra fabric do you need to allow for the pattern?

Another invaluable video…You are a phenomenal teacher, Nancy. I just made four roller shades from your last tutorial and I will think of you every time I look at them. I couldn’t have made them without your video. It was so exhilarating to see them roll up! I can’t wait for your next tutorial! Thank you so much for all you do 🩷🩷

You have no idea how comments like yours mean to me! They keep me motivated :) Thank you for taking the time to write it, and I’m so happy your shades turned out well!

Love your channel. My DIL just asked me to make tailored pleated bedskirts for the grandchildren's beds. Do you have a video?

[@ASquarePillowIsntSquare]

Thank you! I have not made a video on this yet, but I certainly can and will definitely add it to the list!

Thanks for the helpful video. However, I need to join fabric widths to make a curtain for a wide window. Not sure whether to take only the vertical repeat into account or also the horizontal repeat which would make it very confusing?

[@ASquarePillowIsntSquare]

@@gabmalek7292 For curtains you only need the vertical repeat EXCEPT if you are wanting to pleat them on the pattern .

@@ASquarePillowIsntSquare thank you very much for responding. That's really helpful

Very interesting. Does this apply to other types of print fabric (apparel, quilting, etc)?

[@ASquarePillowIsntSquare]

Yes!! All of them!
