Ok I ain't a pro tiler, but I have done a fair bit and I would always try to get cut tiles out of direct view at an edge never alongside a feature like a decorative strip of tiles.

Re: need a bit of help with tiling
The cut would go against the bath and the ceiling - not by the border tile

Reason being you will slice your hand open everytime you touch the cut edge!!
Plus it'll look gash

Re: need a bit of help with tiling
The other problem I have is the border tiles are 7mm and my wall tiles are 6mm I take it you won't notice the difference
