Imagine you're the captain and you're choosing your team....
There are all the hopefuls ... all lined up ...
Pick Me! Pick Me!

Think of how you would choose your winning team:
Fastest runner - get the ball to the goalpost ... Fastest make
Good looking.. if you need to market yourself looks are important ... Take a photo and see what others see
Muscle = energy... Is your fabric up to the job? ... Fabric with body means it will be able to withstand the pressure. Great Fabric looks better than good
Appearances matter. If the player looks like he knows what to do, he probably does. Look for Patterns that exude a classy look
Confidence if you want to look a certain way choose Patterns that assist this quest. Have a good look at the lines and research Google to see how this garment looks on people who are of a similar body shape to you
Is the player energetic & can the Fabric "Move like Jagger?" Is your Fabric able to handle your movement and action

Pick Me! Pick Me! Is the fabric really calling your name or is it calling someone else's name?

How to identify the Fabric that does call your name:
You touch it and you linger
If you think that could come in handy some day ... or you "Get it just in case"... Beware don't waste your money, storage or time ...Just don't get it! This Fabric isn't for you

Ok so if you discover some of these Fabrics in your stash then don't feel bad. All is not lost. You can recognize the feeling and the Fabric you don't want. Hopefully you won't repeat this type of fabric purchase again. Learning does cost time and money but what you have learnt is invaluable.
