Fabric repeat:
A single unit of pattern design on a piece of fabric. Fabrics typically have one repeating pattern throughout, the measurement from one end to the other of this pattern is called a repeat.
If the fabric has a large pattern (repeat) more yardage will be needed to accomplish a specific look than with a smaller repeat or solid fabric.
