At $3 a yard, I would probably buy 2 yards if there is a possibility I would use it. I rarely buy fat quarters. At regularly priced fabric, I usually buy 1/2 - 1 yard. I like scrappy quilts and like to use fabrics that I have used in other quilts and use new fabrics together in the same quilt.

I would too,but I make quilts to sell as well as make quilts for my family.There is usually a bridal shower or a baby shower and they usually want to give a quilt as a gift. Most of the time the customers want to go in my fabric room and pick their colors from I have. So I have to keep a pretty good amount to pick from. If it were just for me and gifts,I wouldn't buy that much.
