    so... let me make sure this is right, i have twelve? i should cut down the middle, then into thirds? then do i HAVE to make one more cut? smaller pieces are easier to pin right? would i get a better variation with bigger pieces?

    Lining it up is the hardest part. So you are ahead.

    Is this the whole of it showing? The bigger the more varience. If you can cut them with multiples in each. As long as they are all the same size and look as much alike as you can.

    If the edges are not exactly matched. As long as the print is matched. We will be trimming the edge to make sure that they are all even

    hmmm, I'm confused by the trimming the edge. But I'm pinned. Is this enough?

    here is an example of a good place to pin, it is easy to spot and to hit the same spot more than once,
