Connecting Threads doesn't charge extra for cutting. It's worth a peek for those interested in trying w/o the extra expense.

Sometimes it's more practical to buy the precuts if you want a variety of the fabrics because many places, especially online shops, will not sell less than 1/4 or 1/2 yard. It would cost a lot more to get 40 1/4 yard pieces to get the variety you can get in a jelly roll.
Does Connecting Threads make jelly rolls by request?
