I love pre-cuts! I have to look at them for awhile and play with them before I use them :D
But I also buy mostly yardage. |

I don't trust that I will like all of the fabrics included in the precuts. I used to buy FQs but not any lately because some have been poor quality and patterns once I opened them. I like to buy yardage so I can see the full pattern and test the quality.

I LOVE pre-cuts! In fact, I'm addicted to charm squares. I love that I get to try fabrics I wouldn't otherwise buy. I like that I can just get down to creating. To each his/her own, right?

You're not the only one!
But I have a thing for fat quarters. |
I love them, especially the layer cakes! I have bought jelly rolls and charm packs too. It's the only way I can afford to get some of all of a particular line of fabric. I'm not that fond of cutting fabric either. I've never had any trouble with any of the ones I've bought so far. I just ordered 10 more charm packs from Nancy's Notions of Benartex Sand and Surf line. They are gorgeous.

Doesn't bother me. I like cutting them,wether charms or whatever.In fact, going to chop up 10" sqs today.Guess I'm chop happy :thumbup:

I guess I am a control freak. Anything that takes the process out of my hands makes me uncomfortable. Also not having 'free-rein' with my own fabric choices bothers me. Am I the only one who feels this way? |
I have such a hard time using them, it's like I'm saving them for that "perfect" project, but then the next project gets ahead of it! Too pretty to use!

A while back I opened a thread about a set of BAtik fats I purchased because I loved the colors. Well, first of all, I don't do well with scrappy; I just can't see putting all of these in one quilt top. I received a lot of great suggestions, but haven't yet had the courage to cut into those fats and get them going into a quilt top. AND they were not cheap!! I do better buying yardage for what I want to do. I'll probably never buy pre-cuts....I said "probably." :o)
