The nice thing about precuts is that you get variety. I get jelly rolls or layer cakes when I want to have a piece of the entire collection. Otherwise I stay with yardage. I also have a lot of FQ but then I really like to work the scrappy look. Some patterns are FQ-friendly, but then - a yard makes 4 FQs (or 2 FQs with 1/2 yard left over).
