    A question before cutting.

    I just got my stuff from Quest in and before I start doing any real work I have a quick question (you always start second guessing the moment before you start working)

    Does the ripstop pattern go flush with the cut of the cloth? Or is it diagonal? I was gonna even everything out if it hadn't been cut square but I don't wanna mess it up more.

    From the types I've seen, there two different ripstop patterns. There's a square pattern with right angles, and there's a diamond pattern with 60*/120* angles.

    It doesn't really matter how you cut, as long as you heat-seal the ends.
