Patterned fabric rolls.
List complete panel cuts on the same supplied pattern-repeat grid.
Read the right quantitative data
Horizontal and vertical repeat, usable width and orientation restrictions.
Check this ordering assumption
Rotating a panel may fit geometrically while violating the selected pattern direction.
Only explicitly permitted orientations belong in the cutting estimate.
