Fallen at the first sewing hurdle

[Runningbutnotscared]

Can anyone help me - I'm such an idiot I just can't see how to do this, or what to google to find the right help.
I have a lovely pattern for some 18-24 month dungarees and some great material. Pattern says I need 1 yard of material, I bought 1 meter.
I have folded the material over so have one fold.
Both the front and the back panels say to cut on the fold line, but only one will fit on the fold?
Am I supposed to fold the material again somehow?
I'm gutted I am not clever enough to figure this out 😩

The material can be folded lengthways or widthways - if you fold it the other way will it fit?

Often there is a picture of the folded fabric at the start of the pattern

So if your piece is 1m by 1.45m (or 1.54m) then you can have a fold 1m long or one 1.45m long

fold the edges to the center

You can fold the fabric where you want. Sometimes you can cut everything with a centre fold. Here I would fold one edge in only as far as you need to fit the front pattern piece on, then do the same for the other edge and the back. Then you will have an irregular piece left in the middle you can cut all the other pieces from. Your pattern should include a cutting layout. Pin everything on first as it's gutting to realise you have a pattern piece left and no piece of fabric large enough. Long pieces like straps are particular culprits.
