I've used lots of Moda charm packs with no problem at all.
I would contact your LQS.
How frustrating for you!! :(

I've only used Moda packed charm packs, and I can honestly say that they have always been consistently cut!

I have used Moda and some off brands and they have always been accurate. I actually love precuts.

This same thing happened to me today. I just received 2 Moda charm packs, Halloween prints, from Missouri Star Quilt Co. As I was making a table runner for my daughter I noticed the sides were not even. I measured the 5" charms still in the package. Most were indeed 5" but some were 5 1/8" Kind of defeats the purpose of buying precuts.

If they were cut and packaged by Moda, I would contact them. If it looks like they were packaged by the LQS, I would contact them. Someone needs to make it right. You should not have to spend the time recutting something that was supposed to be correct.

I have had that problem with several different charm packs. Each one seems to be just a little different from the other. It is just enough to make it a pain. I think from now on I will just cut my own. It's cheaper and I know they will all be the same size.

Yesterday I was at a sale and I was almost tempted to buy some turnovers...glad I didn't! If you buy precuts I feel they should be accurate, straight and ready to use, otherwise what's the point?
