The ornamental design may be applied to either a single-ply or multi-ply product such as bath tissue, facial tissue, paper towels, wipes and the like. The sheet material is of indeterminate length and width.

The sole FIGURE is a top plan view of a continuous sheet material showing our new design. It is understood that the surface pattern repeats uniformly throughout the length and width of the sheet material.

The broken lines form no part of the claimed design. The surfaces or portions of the sheet not shown form no part of the claimed design.

the grant prints no section headings; every part label below is ours, taken from that part's own first words
