    Burning question....
    has anyone received their order at this point? I ordered on the 16th. I am watching my bank account for the deduction to see how much of the order I will get. And to know it will soon be on the way.

    i've had orders from other places take weeks to ship.

    don't they realize i wanted everything a week before i ordered it? :lol:

    seriously, though, i'm pretty sure a few folks have reported getting their orders. some quickly, some not.

    and noooooooooooooo i don't work for them.

    cross my heart. :lol:

    Thanks for your input, Patrice.
    I suspect they are running at top speed trying to locate, cut, package and ship all those orders. I am not sure I would be wanting to work there for this kind of sale.

    Patrice - thank you so much for sharing the link. At these prices I can afford to buy fabric, even with the international shipping fees.

    I bet the staff are run off there feet with all the orders coming in. I'm sure this site alone has boosted their sales.

    Another super big thank you :)

    Placed my order 10/11.
    Rec'd shipping notice 10/19.
    Bank account was charged 10/20.
    Rec'd order Friday 10/22.

    I was billed for and rec'd about half of what I ordered. I guess they were out of the rest of it, no acknoweldgement from them on that issue.

    Quality is GREAT, packed VERY nicely, would order from them again. I ordered mostly 1 yd pieces (a couple 2yd and a few 1/2 yd): one box had 16 pieces, other box had 22 pieces, very neatly folded and all placed in a plastic bag inside shipping box.

    I did notice a few days after placing my order that they noted on their website: "Due to the large volume of orders, it’s taking us a bit longer to fill them. Please be patient, we will get to yours!" So, I was not expecting to get my order as quick as I did! They'll most likely get some of my business in the future.

    I just want to add my thanks to Patrice for finding this great site.

    It goes without saying that I did some shopping----WOW, I haven't seen prices like that in a long time.

    And, if it takes awhile to get my order I'll try to be patient.

    Thanks Pam for the report on your order!

    Placed my order on l0/14 -- yesterday received notice that not one single thing I ordered was available and the entire order was cancelled. I had ordered 10 different items. Hope they remembered NOT to charge my VISA.

    today I canceled my order of Oct. 16th.

    I went to my local Hancock store and found some Batiks on their mark down table. Discontinued bolts were marked from $7.95 to $2.95. I found 7 bolts and bought a yard of each. At the register I was given a 2nd discount and all the fabric was $1.95 per yard. (Batiks are what I had ordered) I came home and sent an email and received a prompt reply to "consider your order canceled!" and saved about $40 if they even had what I wanted. had they cut and shipped, I would have kept it, but under the circumstances I felt I was not likely to get much of it and I wanted to start on some quilt blocks.

    All's well that ends well.
    and maybe you need to check out your local Hancock fabric store.

    K, I said I'd keep even the good news to myself, but I lied.

    Got my order. In its entirety. Packed nicely, fabric looks great. I was originally quoted a higher shipping amount, but when it was ACTUALLY shipped, it would fit in a FRB, and I was charged accordingly.

    Had the occasion to email Chris last week or whatever, and he was SUPER fast to reply. Extremely polite and accurate. For the circumstances, with a gazillion people circling around to get a rockin' deal on fabric, they've done well. I now have them on speed-dial(-up) for when I have an itch to get some goodies.

    I'm sorry that patience didn't pay off for a few unhappy quilters. It did for me. :D
