FAQ
FABRICS
Can I get FQ's cut?
If a fabric is available in .25 increments you are able to get that fabric as a Fat Quarter. Simply lower the option amount to .25. If you prefer a 1/4 yard cut please make a note on the order at checkout.
Why are some fabrics only available as .5?
To help track with inventory and to be more economical with our space for fabric not all fabric is available in .25 increments.
Canvas ans some sale fabrics are only available in half yard increments.
Grunge and any solid that is not Tilda will be sold in half yard increments. These fabrics can be confused with similar fabrics if they are not cut from a bolt and we want to make sure you get the correct fabrics.
What is a Fat Quarter? A Fat Eighth? A Fat Sixteenth?
A Fat Quarter is the same amount of fabric as a normal quarter yard cut but has different dimensions. A normal (or long) quarter yard cut is 9” x 43/44” and a fat quarter cut is 18” x 21/22.”
A Fat 8th is half of a fat quarter. It measures approximately 18” x 10/11.”
A Fat 16th is half of a fat 8th. It measures approximately 9” x 11.”
Do you sell fabric swatches or samples?
We do not have fabrics smaller than a FQ available for purchase.
Why does fabric looks different in person?
Most images listed with a fabric is a digital photo provided to us from the manufacturer. We try and have photos available that have been taken professionally with the fabric release so you can see it with other fabrics from that line, but it is not possible to accurately see a fabric online and in person. And everyone sees color different. Please note cut fabric is not returnable because you don't think it's the right color.

PREORDERS
What is your policy for Preorders?
Quilted Chicken offers preorders on some of our favorite upcoming collections. You can see these in our Coming Soonr menu at the top. Placing a Preorder means you are reserving fabric by paying for a listing up-front, before this item ships from the manufacturer. We base most fabric orders on what we see in our reserved preorders. The delivery month is provided for each fabric in the title and description. We will ship all preorder fabrics immediately upon receiving. If we are notified by the manufacturer that there are delays or mis-shipments, and it affects your order we will reach out as soon as we are aware, and work with you to find a reasonable solution. Please know that all Preorder sales can be cancelled within 24 hours, after that they are final and cannot be altered combined with other orders. If you have placed multiple orders that are showing to arrive in the same weeks time we will combine them and issue a refund on any extra shipping. Please do not order IN STOCK items with your Preorder items. All items placed on an order with preorder are held and shipped when the order is complete.
When will my preorder ship?
For each preorder item you will see month tab with the release month and year over the fabric photo. These items are available to preorder and the arrival date is an estimation that is subject to change without notice. We cannot guarantee ship dates, however, we can guarantee that we will ship your order within 48 hours of receiving the item.
I ordered a few in stock items with my preorder. When will in stock items ship?
If you only placed one order, you order will ship when all items are available. Please make sure to check that any preorder item is placed in a separate order. Any in stock items will be cut at the time of order and held until all items are ready to ship.
