For the same price would you choose
a set of 33 fat quarters consisting of 1 fat quarter of every fabric in the line or...
a set of 8 one-yard pieces (no choice but it is a pre-made pack so I can see the fabrics in it) plus two more yards of my choice. So no more than 10 different fabrics but more of each one.

I'd choose the 8 one-yard pieces with the 2-yard bonus. It seems more versatile to me.

what kind of quilts do you like to make? If scrappy then choose the fat quarters but if not then choose the ardage. I personally would choos ethe yardage since it is easy to add fabric if needed. 10yds of fabric is a lot of fabric for 1 quilt so you would probably get 2 out of that yardage. A quilting teacher once told me hat you should not choose all fabric from 1 line but rather some from other lines so quilt will pop.
