okie, i'm gonna do a proportions equation to get an approximate length for ya. let's work off of TurboBeads Peyote stitch cuff, because it uses the same stitch. He uses 5 feet of string, and 144 beads. That's our first ratio, 5ft/144beads. Our second ratio is X (the amount of string we're solving for) divided by the amount of beads in your first panel. The amount of beads in your first panel (the 50 by 30) is 1500 beads. So, next we look at our fractions and cross multiply them. 5 gets multiplied by 1500, x gets multiplied by 144. Our equation now looks like 144x = 7500. Now we divide both sides by 144 to get x. In this case, x = approximately 52.083, so i'd round up to 53 or 54 feet.

you can use the same equation for your other panels, but here's the answers so you don't have to do the math

50x30 panel = 53-54 feet, 50x43 panel = 75 -76 ft , 14x30 panel = 15 - 16 ft(these are all rounded up just in case, but since you have limited string the lower number of footage should still work in theory)
