Help!
I'm a fairly new sewist, and I'm completely perplexed about how to lay out the cuts for the flounce on this dress.
Part of the problem is that the fabric I'm using is directional, but not dramatically so.
Here's what I'm using:

So, it can be sideways, but I'd rather it not be. If I cut the fabric the way the fabric layout says to, I'm afraid it's going to be sideways for vast portions of it... but the way the flounce is, I'm worried that it's going to be impossible (or, well beyond my skill level) to figure out how to make it look right.
...and I'm afraid to cut it then have it going North-South seamed to an East-West...
Any guidance, help, etc??!?!?
