Precuts are a big help if you are doing "controlled" scrappy projects. There are many of us who just don't do scrappy. This quilt was made from two JRs; the pieced border was a layer cake. Using the JRs, I didn't have to cut the 60 2-1/2" strips, just subcut into rectangles and squares. There were over 150 flying geese in this top. Precuts are also a big help if you have any kind of hand / wrist / elbow / arm / shoulder problems and cutting is painful. I like being able to buy JRs and layer cakes of Kona cotton solids to go with the printed fabrics.
