    Color, print, and design of the fabric. It all depends on what I am going to be using it for. I have to have a project I am going to make before I 'just' buy fabric, its too pricey to just buy it because I like it.

    It depends what I am thinking about;often it is color,I love color and I have several favorites. I also have collections of some patterns such as white daisies or strawberries. Then I have to consider price.
