I tend to buy by color choice first and price 2nd I was actually in looking at all the new stuff my shop got in this week, bad mistake saw way too many nice fabric. I also found out tonight that they are hiring, hubby says not a chance I won't have a paycheck left. He knows me way too well lol

I am really fussy with my fabric choices but that said I agree with most of the posters....reduced prices, then manufacturers and collections. I rarely have a pattern in mind....just looking for those that speak to me with a big WOW factor. Since I have such a huge stash I really have to love it...and believe me I love way to many collections.

I pick my pattern, pick my color, pick the material by what I like and the quality, then by price. I buy the real expensive only if I can't live with out it or find what I want at a cheaper price.
