I like torn, and tear at home. I find that most shops cut.

I have not purchased a torn piece in many years. No shops around here tear, they are all cut. As for a preference, I don't have one.

Cut for me, thanks.

I like mine cut...always!

I prefer using recycled sheets for backing so that the tear vs cut question doesn't come up for me. I find beautiful Egyptian cotton sheets (like new) at my local Goodwill for $4-5 each and that works beautifully for me. I take it to my quilter and she does the rest. I'll have to ask her if she tears or cuts any excess.

Cut for me. I hate it when they try to tear my fabric. Distorts the threads.

Torn is fine. Sometimes when I tear fabric it does not tear straight. Is it me or the fabric.

Torn, definitely.

Happy Friday

I prefer to have my fabrics cut and not torn. Had some bad experiences with torn fabric.

I like mine cut. I don't like all the thready ends that I have to cut
and then you lose a little.
