I love red but always shy away from it because of the bleeding. A shame b/c it's one of my favorite colors.
I haven't had problems with pre-cuts--- yet. One reason I like to buy them is to get the assortment without
getting yardage of some that I may not want much of.
But I agree that the cost compared to yardage is quite high.
I watch a lot of Jenny Doan's videos and that's about all she seems to use!
