Most online sites I have looked at will cut 1/2 yard. I just finished a quilt that used probably 100 different fabrics, I only needed 1/4 yard, not even that. So it was the few shops that cut 1/4 yard that got my business. I probably spent $200.00, so I don't understand why they won't cut small cuts. I really hate it when you have to buy 1 yard with sale fabrics, if I only want 1/2 yard then the sale doesn't help me at all. I make mostly "controlled scrappy" quilts, so I mostly want lots of small cuts of fabric.
