Inquiring minds want to know.
I look for purple.

I check out the clearance section first, then the sales, fat quarters, nursery prints, and everything else. Just seems to always be in that order.

I head straight for the clearance fabrics. I have only paid full price on a hand full of the fabrics in my stash.

Boy! Although I head for the batiks, I quickly get overwhelmed and use the word Awesome....at least DH as so :lol:

Some shops I head to remnants, scraps, etc. Other shops I start at the front and work my way around. I generally skip books and patterns, but do like to browse at notions.

Definitely, straight to the batiks!

Clearance first, then whatever color(s) I'm currently looking for, interspersed with whatever catches my eye at the moment.
