I do not like fabric / trimming once I have it in my possession.
If you have been given or sent a sample of the fabric or trimmings you require and then ordered it from us you have accepted the item as what you require. We will not take it back.

Money has been taken from my account for a sample card but nothing arrived.
That means we have posted the sample card.  If it does not arrive, that means it is lost in the post.  We do not take your money until your goods or samples are actually sent.  Always phone and we will re-send. We can only apologise on behalf of the postal service.
Question:
Answer:
The fabric is not suitable for what I want to make with it, will you take it back?
As you are the manufacturer, and the fabric is in perfect condition, No we will not take the fabric back unless faulty. You must carry out all tests for the suitability of the fabric for the garment you create.  As you are the manufacturer. Once fabric is cut, it is then deemed acceptable by you.  Please all necessary checks on you fabric before cutting and sewing.
Question:
Answer:
I did not make the fabric up for a year, just put it away when it arrived.  There is a fault in the fabric, can I have my money back.
The faulty goods act like anything is for your protection. There is always a statute of limitation on anything. However, we do ask that you check your fabric when it arrives, if you do not fancy making it up straight away, so any problems can be sorted at the time, our invoice tells you to do this when you are in receipt of any item we send to you.  Help us to help you. Faulty goods will be replaced.  Just don't leave it too long.

NOTE  from me [Natalie]  I am sorry we do not provide a shopping basket, this is not a professional site,
I write it myself.  My staff who man the phones are always happy and willing to answer any questions and

we will always send samples.  May be in the future we will have a basket. Or just me who is a basket case at times!!!Prices may differ on this site from our shops the prices on this web site are for this web site only. 5% and 10% off full rolls in our shops.

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ.
Some fabrics are not exactly the same colours as you are viewing them on a computer, as it is a computer after all. However, they are pretty close. Please ask for a sample if you need the colours to match exactly to something else, this avoids confusion. If you buy unseen we will not take it back, this of course does not affect your statutory rights..


 *OUR FABRICS ARE PURCHASED BY YOU BY THE METRE. YOU CAN BUY AS LITTLE AS QUARTER OF A METRE, OR YOU CAN BUY OUR FABRIC IN INCREMENTS OF .5CM.  so you could by 75cm or 1.05mt 1.10mt , 1.15mt. etcetera . After a quarter you can purchase whatever you require. or you can purchase by the roll at a special roll price.


When ordering Rolls they can be  either 23mts /25mts/30mts or sometimes over.  Check what is offered on the page you are dealing with, however, If ordering rolls, always ask roll size or if you are confused order in metres and we will always try and accommodate.

Sorry to muddle your heads with all this blog but sometimes we get our knickers in a twist and the rolls come up bigger than expected so to cover yourself ask for say 4 rolls of 23mts and we will sort from there as you are wanting 4x23mts = 92mt. We always try to accommodate or we will telephone you if we cannot.
