Hello! First time tiling a bath. My issue is that the shower wall is about .5" (1.5cm) narrower at the top than at the tub edge over a span of about 7 feet (208cm). Should I begin tiling with the 2x6 inch bullnose edge and then trim the tiles on the inside corner edge? I'm just having a tough time imagining level tiles and grout lines throughout with this less-than-plumb outside edge.

I will be adding 1/4 inch beadboard panel on that exposed wood face with the bullnose covering the beadboard rough edge. Tiles are 4x12 subway, and plan for 1/8 inch grout lines. Thanks to anyone who can help me map out a best approach!
