DEC 2024 - We're moving into a "holiday slowdown" period through the end of this year.
Most/many of our distributors are small family-run businesses that already function with a slim staff, some are even slimmer nowadays...
We've already received reminders from many vendors that they will be closed from mid-December through early January.
Please be aware that any orders placed for out-of-stock items during the next few weeks might have extended delays in fulfillment, until our vendors/distributors re-open after the start of the year.
Oh, and on-going supply chain issues, so there's still those delays too...
Maybe take a stroll through the Specials and Clearance sections? Or any items NOT listed as "pre-order/0 units in-stock" are all confidently available for immediate shipment.
Your cooperation, understanding and patience is greatly appreciated.
Happy Holidays (whichever you may celebrate, if any)!

EFFECTIVE MARCH 2023
NEW PURCHASING POLICY INSTITUTED FOR SHOPS
FABRICS BY STEPHANIE ONLY
Stephanie has established a new ordering policy for shops.
Shops can only have one(1) order outstanding with her at a time,
with a limit of ten(10) cuts per order.

STNA is NOT discontinuing FBS products,
merely adapting to her new requirements by shifting to an ordering schedule,
and adjusting stock visibility.

  • Ordering windows will be made available at periodic intervals, instead of ad-hoc. Sorry.
  • During the periodic ordering windows, all FBS products will be activated and visible so folks can order whatever they'd like.
  • Timetables and duration will be communicated via STNA's recurring newsletter, in addition to a website banner when a window is open, not unlike during general sale events.
  • No banner/announcement = no open window.
  • Please don’t ask “when is the next window”. We won’t know until our current FBS order is closed/shipped.
  • Historically, FBS turnaround time for shops has been roughly 2-3 months. Please try to plan your projects accordingly.
  • If/when she starts trending to a shorter turnaround, we'll investigate adjusting the window frequencies accordingly. No promises, and only time will tell.

ORDERING BEYOND THE WINDOWS

  • When an ordering window is not currently open, any out-of-stock FBS colors/counts will be disabled from view.
  • What you'll see in the FBS product listing will be active on-hand inventory, ready to ship.
  • If you'd like to order a fat 8th of FBS, for example, but only see a fat quarter actively listed, please feel free to send a message, and include the STNA link to the product you'd like a smaller cut of (since a quarter can be cut down into 8ths).
  • You'll be contacted when the catalog listing for the smaller cut has been activated so you can purchase it.
  • Standard cut requests only, for 8th/quarter/half/full yardage.
  • STNA still does not offer custom/non-standard cuts of any fabrics, unless it's for contiguous/uncut pieces of 1+ yards.

The FBS ordering window is currently CLOSED!


If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please feel free to contact us!
Thanks!
