It depends on the seller. Some say 1yd others 1/2yd some 1/4. I usually buy 1 yd. But then again, I seldom buy less than one yard except on Fat Tuesday then I spend bunches on fat quarters. Fat Tuesday is when Threads of Time has all their fat quarters marked down to $1.50 each. Last year I bought around $79 or $80. You have to be there early to get the best picks.
