reposting in the help category, had mistakenly put it in the general category:

Hi! Love your book! 
now I'm trying to do the Rex's body but the stripes I'll get are diagonal... I think there might be a mistake in the book... I have the sixth edition (in this edition there was a mistake in the printing of Ming the Kitten)... please could you tell me if the pattern is correct? 
thank you!
