When I'm tempted to buy any fabric anywhere, I remind myself of the 7 GIANT 107qt. storage tubs full of fabric in my laundry room, & go "shopping" through them whenever I feel the need to shop.

I can never justify the cost of any pre-cut packages. yardage wise the price is outrageous..I want a lot more bang for my buck

At this rate I'm sure I'll be there in a few years.

Understandable. I was tempted to wait and buy yardage of everything but I think this will be perfect for a project I have in mind, so I took the leap.

Many think the price of precuts is the price of the fabric. It's not.
Pre cuts have all the fabric line in one package. Not all shops order all of the line in the design and having someone cut 10" square from each print would be a big NO from LQS. A layer cake pre cut goes a long way. I use layer cakes as part of my fabric stash to pull from when I need a piece smaller then a fat quarter. Pre cuts take up much less storage and I like seeing a basket full of precuts in my sewing room.

That makes perfect sense to me. You can always use it for something and it may be gone tomorrow or next week. Go for it!!!!!!
