Skin fruniture with print fabric

[bstjames00]

I am a designer and would like to be able to apply print fabrics to furniture pieces, but when I apply it to a pillow, for instance it comes out with the geometry and all wrong. How do I do it correctly in order to see the pattern?

Thanks

Here is a link to a page with a series of steps:

There are also videos on you tube. Here is one: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&ved=0CDYQtwIwAQ&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DfcIMTJ99mZc&ei=q3JKUY6JMoei2wXnp4BI&usg=AFQjCNGTAPRP8TVKjxZYmyUcbdTP3d-piw&bvm=bv.44158598,d.b2I

Notice in that video the repositioning and scaling of textures. Your fabric image is just like those wood textures.
There are other examples, and other folks may show you more, here.
