I thought it came in an email but now that I think of it, it's possible that I saw it in preview pages for a quilt book on Amazon. Wish my memory was better!
go to the Moda website and they have a chart for their precuts. I do think it would depend on the brand as sometimes there are 40cuts (i.e. layer cake or jelly roll) and with other brands there may be 38 or even 42. And some manufacturers sell a "jelly roll" that is actually only 24 cuts.
