I never use them either...as far as I'm concerned you get so much more for your money buying yardage plus you have leftovers for scrappy quilts. I don't even buy fat quarters for this very reason. I too am more of a traditional quilter but do enjoy making many of the other style quilts.
I think many people buy them so they don't have to cut so much as it makes it a faster process for them. Imagine there are a number of reasons for buying them than not buying them as always different strokes for different folks......
