I mean, maybe you're just like, got done with your drawing and you're like well maybe this would be better if it was poke it out fabric and you never thought about it, so now you're going to look for a poke it out fabric when you originally just want a blue silk. But now, I just decided that maybe pokes it out would be cool. So maybe I'll try and find something like that fabric. It just depends on whether you buy the fabric first or you sketch the sketch first. You know, like what you going to do with first. Some people go with the fabric store and get fabric and get inspired by the fabric and then make the drawing. Other people make the drawing and search for the fabrics.
