I buy what I like. I tend to gravitate to brands I trust when shopping online because I can't feel the fabric and I like working with fabric that feels good.

I buy by collections, find one I like and buy lots of the coordinates.

I'll always go for LV--have 6 ; but buy fabric what appeals, providing it actually feels right.

I agree with this.

I don't really care who makes it as long as it works for my project.

I buy name brand for the quality. I can feel the difference, I do not buy just for the name and do not buy just one brand but the difference can be felt.

There are a few manufacturers that I never buy from, I just don't care for their designs. Others that I search for because they consistently follow my tastes.
And then many, many that catch my eye due to the color/designs... and I never even looked at the Manufacturer before buying :D:D:D
