I use charms alot since you get a large selection of fabrics and charms are so versatile.
They are great for 4 patches, HST, etc.
I always buy on sale and at least 3 packs of a fabric line. This will make a lap size. Of course you will need extra fabric for sashing and borders and its sometimes hard to match an old line of fabric thats not available any more.
