Default charm packs

Sometimes I really don't care for charm packs.

I had to get a refund on a layer cake because 1/2 of them were too small

I notice that the ones with the edges like that are always smaller for some reason.

I, too, am not a fan of charm packs, for the same reason as Sash. And some jelly rolls are off too.

I see them and like a few but the rest leave me cold. My sister has bought many of them, and layer cakes as well. They never seem to be the same size.

One thing I have learned is that those with pinked edges are measured from peak to peak, not valley to valley. They work fine even if I have cut some of my own 5" pieces, I line the peak up to the edge. That half inch JaneQuilt had is definitely a wrong'un.
