[QUOT=Treasureit;6751278]I rarely buy fat quarters, but when you need 16 of them for one project...it might be cheaper than buying 1 yard of more fabrics. Can you use your fabric for as many as you can and then just buy some fats to fill in?
Also - if I am using my own fabric I just cut what I need from the end of the fabric and not make fats out of it. Many times they just want a piece or two cut from each fabric...not even using the whole FQ.[/QUOTE]
This is what I would do as well. I would not waste my time or stash cutting it into fq's when you might not need anywhere near that much of any given fabric.
