    Good morning.

    As a newbee to everthing concerning quilting can you tell me by the rule of thumb how often onlineshops offer free international shipping for orders over 100$? I prefer Hancocks and Fatquartershop.
    Might be a silly question but I "need" so much and could wait another month or so, but not till fall if it just happens twice a year.

    Wish I could help with international shipping charges. I really don't know. I think if I was in your situation and plan on purchasing a large amount anyway. I would order atleast the minimum. What I would take into consideration is the price of the fabric. If its also on sale, then good deal. If not, then see how much it would cost to purchase when material was on sale and see what is the best deal.

    I know frugal!!!! :lol: :lol: Otherwords CHEAP!!!! :lol: :lol:

    When it comes to international shipping it is hard to find good deals for the shipping charges. Maybe send them an email and see what they say, you might be surprised. If the order is large enough they might do it discounted / free just to get the order :lol:

    Hancocks had a free overseas shipping offer (on orders over, I think it was, $100) in late March. I have a feeling that the previous one was before Christmas, perhaps November?

    I think I would write and ask them, just as previously mentioned.

    The usually have a free shipping event every 3 months or so but I am hoping they will do one for Mother's Day this weekend.
    I didn't know that the fat quarter shop offer free shipping too, I will have to sign up for a newsletter.
