Sounds like you have one long piece of single-width fabric...or a long piece of 24-30 inch wide stuff. sydnie7 is assuming you bought 3-4 yards of double-width (60 inches) and are cutting it in half length-wise, and joing the pieces to make one long piece. That's what folks usually do with tartan.
It's what I did with my Reverse Kinguisse kilt that I Just made. I bought 3 yards of 60-inch wide black bull denim, then cut out 2, 24 inch wide pieces from the edges, and joined them. I made it so that the seam where the pieces are joined together lies smack-dab in the middle of the inner box pleat that kinguisse kilts all have.
