Jen,

Glad that the 1+1 fingering worked for you in this spot.

But be cautious about relying too much on any particular choice as you need to think about that is happening musically before and after the D#/Eb. Other choices like T12+side key or sliver key might be a better choice at times.

As you continue to move up with your level of play, knowing alt. fingerings is a must. This is all about being versatile which will make you a more mature player and you will develop a much deeper understanding of the instrument.

PS I still practice alternate fingerings when there is a chance to employ them in any music. Muscle and mind memory!
