Shipping and Returns

About Shipping

Our in stock fabrics ship from Rhode Island and in stock orders ship within 3 business days. If processing times need to be extended, such as during large promotional events, we will place a notification on our website.  We strive to get your order to you as quickly as possible.

NOTE: We carry a mixture of in stock and pre-order/custom-order fabrics in order to provide the widest range of fabric choices and prints. In stock fabrics can be found in the "in stock" headings on our website menu.  

To keep our shipping charges low, all orders will ship complete. If your order contains a mix of pre-order/custom order fabrics and in-stock fabrics, your order will not ship until all fabrics are on hand. Please place separate orders if you wish for your in-stock fabric purchase to ship now.

Pre-order Fabrics

We offer a curated collection of prints from popular designers such as Lumelo and Ginger, Wharfedale Studios, Claire Eddie Art, and more.

These prints can be ordered across a range of fabric bases such as reactive printed jersey or French terry, and European jersey and French terry.

Please note: Designs on dark colored backgrounds print best on reactive printed fabrics.

We can accommodate special fabric requests. Please contact us with the type of fabric you are looking for, and we'll get back to you with a quote.

Print scale: All Little Rhody pre-order designs are shown with a ruler to show scale.  The scale of any design we own can be adjusted to your preferences.  If you wish to order a design with a different scale, let us know. This does not include designs by Family Fabrics. We do not own these designs and we cannot have them adjusted.  

Orders are placed on the 2nd and 4th Monday of the month for reactive printed fabrics and every Monday for European fabrics. The turnaround time for reactive printed fabrics is about 4 - 5 weeks. For European fabrics the turnaround time is about 1.5 - 2 weeks.

Estimated turn around time is the time it will take for the fabrics to reach us. Please add an additional 3 - 5 additional transit days for the fabrics to reach you once we have them in hand from our printer.  

Custom Order Fabrics

Many of our European fabrics are available by special custom order.   Orders are placed once a week, usually on Monday or Tuesday, with our European textile partners.  These orders generally have a quick turn-around and usually reach us in about 7-14 business days (sometimes sooner).  We always ship custom order fabrics to you within 24-48 hours of receiving them. If there are delays by our textile partners, we will notify you.  These orders cannot be canceled for any reason once we place the order with our textile partners. 

Please Note: Orders ship complete. If your order contains a mix of pre-order/custom order fabrics and in-stock fabrics, your order will not ship until all fabrics are on hand. Please place separate orders if you wish for your in-stock fabric purchase to ship now. 

Shipping Charges

We offer flat rate shipping on all orders according to weight.  Flat rate shipping of $9.00 will apply to all orders up to 12 pounds (about 12 yards of fabric).  Orders over 12 pounds will have higher shipping rates that will be calculated at checkout. Carrier will be chosen based upon weight and location.  Transit time is generally 3-8 business days once your package has been shipped.  

International Shipping

We ship internationally.  International shipping is set at .01 cents at checkout.  You will receive a separate invoice from us when we are ready to ship your order. The rate we charge to ship your order will be the exact shipping charge we pay to our shipping partner.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Please contact us for a shipping quote if you would like an estimate of the cost.  Orders will not be shipped until the shipping invoice is paid. Orders that are canceled due to shipping costs, or for any reason after we have processed your order, will incur a 20% restocking fee.  Orders containing preorder fabrics cannot be canceled for any reason.  

Cancelation: Orders that have already been processed, but not yet shipped, will incur a 20% restocking fee if canceled.  Orders containing preorder and/or custom order fabrics cannot be canceled for any reason once we place the order with our printer.  

Note: We are not responsible for any customs fees or taxes charged by your country to import goods.  Please take this into account when ordering. 

About Returns

Returns are accepted on fabric that is cut in 1 yard lengths or more within 5 days of order delivery.  Fabric must be returned in the same condition it was received. Fabric must be returned undamaged, unwashed, and uncut as well as free of odors and pet hair.  The cost of return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  You may also contact us for a return label and the cost of return shipping will be deducted from any refund.  The original cost of shipping is NOT refundable. 

Please note that due to the many variations in monitors and browsers, colors may appear different on different screens. We will not pay for return shipping due to colors not appearing as expected.  

Damaged Fabric

All fabric is inspected for flaws and packaged carefully to avoid damage during shipping.  If you receive fabric with significant flaws, or if your package arrives damaged, please contact us.
