There seem to be some "jelly rolls" out there that are thinner than 2.5. What are they called?

Ok just googled Pre cuts and it says Pre cuts are when the pieces are cut out for the quilt , you just sew them together :thumbup:

Fat Quarter Shop has one of the better lists of pre-cuts with descriptions and what they are used for. http://www.fatquartershop.com/guide-and-glossary.asp
