I prefer 9 inch by 44 inch. Two reasons: Matching pattern and the cost.

As an appliquer, I buy fat quarter assortments for a particular quilt.
As a quilter, if I like a fabric, & it will be the main fabric for a quilt, I never buy less than 3 yards.
If it's a sale,,, I stock up on neutrals, usually 5 yds.
