I am not that person! :mrgreen:
I sometimes am inspired by a fabric, sometimes dream about a pattern....rarely have someone to give it to in mind....
There is no RIGHT way!!!
Just enjoy!
I have to agree with this. Sometimes while I am browsing the fabric at any place I can, (much to DH sorrow), I have to have some fabric-be it color, design, feel....and sometimes as stated above...I wake up in the middle of the night beacuase a pattern has popped into my dreams and then the search begins for the perfect fabric for it. Welcome and just remember which ever way you do it...it will be perfectly fine.
