Now before I go any further, I would like to mention that my pre-cuts did not say "for personal use only" anywhere on them. Of course, these items are going to be for personal use as gifts. I am not selling them, nor am I benefiting financially from posting a picture of them. I just don't want Ms. Spain coming after me! You know what I mean???
As glad as I am that whole Kate Spain mess is over, I agree with Leah Day's post from last month, that in a way it is a shame that it did not play out it court. The whole thing raises a lot of questions that add stress to the quilting community. For that reason, I doubt that I will be buying anymore of her fabric. It is a bummer because I really like her designs. Just my personal choice of action, people! I know many people that feel passionately about one side or the other.
Changing the subject...when you have bought pre-cuts in the past, has this happened to anyone else??
I was looking through my layer cake to pick out some of the duplicate prints and I find that one is completely missing about 1 1/2 inches! I know it says on the package that some variation can occur, but an inch and a half!!! And I counted, this isn't an "extra" square. It's also not the first time this has happened to me either. I had a charm pack recently that was missing part of a square. Thank goodness I wasn't following a pattern that needed each square inch of fabric!
Thanks for providing that link to Leah Day's post (and revisions, and Kate Spain's comment). Wow! I knew that had happened, but a good write-up!
