A, B, or C?
If you had your choice of buying at a yard sale one of these three pieces of fabric - all from the same bolt - each marked for the same price - which would you choose?
Next question - if you end up with a piece of fabric with ends like A or C - do you trim it to look like B before you put it back in your stash?

If it was fabric I liked, I would buy any of those cuts. I probably would grab the one I thought had the most fabric for the price. I would not trim A or C before adding to my stash because I might need a longer piece for borders.

I'd buy C, which has the most fabric, wash/dry/iron it, put it in stash as is (as Marilyn said, in case I need a longer strip than the main body). When the time comes to use it, I'll trim the used end off if I need to, and that would go in the scrap box.
