I used to dislike selecting fabrics because I would get overwhelmed by the options. Now I just buy from a collection. My closest shop has many fat quarter packs that make selecting fabric much easier. If I need yardage, I'll take a fat quarter pack and select the fabrics for yardage from that. Plus, the saleswomen are very friendly and happy to help. Works for me!
Now if someone would just sew on the boarders for me. That's the part that trys my patience.
