I don't purchase precuts unless they have been laser cut. Jelly rolls, particularly. Hoffman use to allow manual cutting and although they used machines,...I received rolls that were 2 1/4 wide rather than 2 1/2". And of course, did not discover until I had pieced numerous four patches...Ugh! Hoffman did make it right and replaced my fabric in addition to sending a beautiful 8 yd batik for the backing of the quilt! Now they only use laser cutting. Yeah! Love their fabrics.
