If you want small amounts of fabric but lots of variety than pre-cuts may be the way to go. You are going to pay extra for them because someone had to cut them. I don't like pre-cuts that come with pinked edges. It is a good way to make a project from a whole fabric line and they will be all colour coordinated for you. If you have health problems(arthritis) that make rotary cutting painful then pre-cuts may be the way to go.
