Frequently Asked Questions

Do you also have a physical store?

Yes. We're located in Madison, Maine and have been in business since 1978.   We have over 10,000 bolts of fabrics and a Sale Cottage with great bargains.   If you're ever in the area, please stop in.  We'd love to see you!

What kinds of fabrics do you carry?

100% Cotton quilting fabrics (except if marked otherwise, like a few rayon batiks)  Great for quilting, home decor, apparel, crafting and more.  We only carry top manufacturers like Moda Fabrics, Hoffman Fabrics, Robert Kaufman, Widham Fabrics, Free Spirit Fabrics, Island Batik, Marcus Fabrics and more.  We especially love Batik fabrics, and have approximately 800 on our website, and about 2,000 bolts in-store.

What is the minimum purchase for yardage?

We have a 1/2 yard minimum for yardage, and after that it's available in 1/4 yard increments.  Use the drop-down quantity menu to adjust your yardage.  To order 1/2 yard, set the first drop-down menu to "0" and the second drop-down menu to "1/2".  

Where do you ship to?

We ship to the United States only.  As of 3/22/18 we are no longer shipping to Canada due to changes in shipping method from our provider.

I heard a rumor that you're closing

We're not closing!!   There's a store in the next state that opened about 14 years ago with the same name as ours, and they are closing, so there's been some confusion.  We're not closing - in fact, we're looking forward to celebrating our 40th anniversary this year! 

If the weather is bad here in Maine, how do I know if you're open?

Winter in Maine is very unpredictable, and we are forced occasionally to close for the safety of ourselves and our employees.   If we do close for weather, we post that information at the top of our website home page (this page), and also on our Facebook page.
