  2. Do each of the floral fabrics need to be cut out in the same area of the fabric to make it a kaleidoscope? In other words I need to stack my fabric and cut them all alike? Hope you understand what I’m trying to ask

    1. That’s a good question and yes is the answer. If you want your block to look more like a kaleidoscope then fussy cut or stack the fabric and cut it on the same repeat. If you use a medium to large print the kaleidoscope will show better too. I hope this helps.
