Fabric store deconstruct

I ran out to JoAnn's on my lunch hour. I'd seen a nice gold brocade I thought would work well for a Saxon/Cranach dress at the other location. Either this one didn't have it in the same color, or it wasn't quite so "perfect" on closer (nonchild-encumbered) examination. It's a nice brocade, comes in lots of colors. No paisleys, just looks like a decent period brocade. There WAS a better gold color, but DID have paisleys.

So, should I:

Go ahead and make a full bore Saxon with gold and pearls, even if the brocade pattern is a bit off.

Check the other location for a better gold in the nicer pattern and plan on the Saxon.

Get the nicer brocade in another color:

Black/grey - to do an upper class Dutch gown a la Katerina van Hemessen.
Red - and do a Dutch gown, whilst contending that the van Hemessen mini IS a red dress, rather than the artist using red to make the black dress appear to have dimension.
Teal/coffee - throw period color combos to the wind and do the Dutch cut with the Teal/coffee/white brocade, Dk. Choc microfiber velvet bodice and teal silk sleeves.

Chuck the whole nonsense and do a Cleves/Koln gown.
