Working with 3 repeaters connected to same dataset

Hello,
I have three different repeaters connected to the same dataset. Is it possible to show different items from the dataset on each repeater? In preview all three repeaters are displaying the same dataset items. if I have 6 items in my dataset they show the same 6 items if that makes any sense.
For example I would like to first show the featured items in the repeater 1 & repeater 2 next I would like to display the non-featured items in the repeater 3.
My page design is set up with the featured repeater 1 than separated by an image box, next featured repeater 2, then non- featured repeater 3.
