If I find a beautiful print, I will buy 2-3 yards of it, but I will also buy at least 3 fabrics that coordinate with it in one yard cuts. I also buy 1/2 yards and yards of tone-on-tone and tonal fabrics because they are always nice to have. I personally don't find precuts (fat quarter, jelly rolls, etc.) all that useful, I'd rather just cut what I need.
