    I LOVE Robert Kaufman, Michael Miller and Alexander Henry but I don't only use fabrics from their lines. I choose usually on the design and go from there

    I pick by what fits the project and the feel or if I have the extra money what appeals to me at the time. My problem? I love it all!

    I go by color, quality, design. If I am drawn to a line, it is only because it possesses a lot of the color or design that I like.

    Robert Kaufman is my all time favorite for Christmas and Asian fabrics in particular.
    Also really like Robert Hoffman fabrics.

    Love Henry's spooky stuff. I recently found 2 retired pieces on Ebay and snatched them right up.

    I'm currently obsessed with Loralie Harris.

    I pick by color & design/print. I have a picture in my mind and try to match it.

    I choose what I love for myself and try to make gifts based on the recipients favorite colors and pattern that fits their decor.

    Because I like the quality of Connecting Threads fabric I always go to them first to see if they have what I need. I seem to like the colors and prints of Concord and RJR most often. I will never buy another Benartex fabric. I bought a piece at LQS and it was awful. It was stiff and the stiffness did not wash out and the print is very uneven. It is the only fabric that ever bled.

    I buy what I like, I dont go for brands, or designers. I buy what appeals to me by sight and touch...
