Locate the edge on the whole product
Ask for a complete view identifying the decorated side or sides. Do not assume the opposite edge has the same finish because one scallop is visible. Keep the product code with the image and clarify whether the picture shows a narrow trim or an edge of a wider fabric.
Check how the motif faces the garment
Mark the intended hem or opening on a sketch. Ask the maker whether the motif will face correctly when the edge is placed there. Turning a panel to preserve a border may change the direction of the main design, so review both decisions together before estimating quantity.
Explore the productsDiscuss joins before promising a seamless look
Where two lengths meet, the repeat may influence how the join appears. Show the proposed location and ask the maker to assess it with a sample if needed. A close-up of a continuous edge does not demonstrate the result at a corner, curved opening or seam.
Record the approved cutting route
Save which edge is used, where joins are acceptable and which areas must retain a complete motif. Recheck the plan when garment sizes or style lines change. Confirm actual measurements and the selling unit with Rose; the article does not establish a standard border width or an item-specific cutting instruction.
