Have your fabrics been tested?

We believe in peace of mind, therefore all of our fabrics have been tested for lead and have passed all government regulations. The testing was conducted by an independent laboratory. We have complied with all the guidelines of the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). We would like to reiterate the importance of conducting your own product testing, since the Act requires the finished product to be tested as well.
Why is the number of yards I received different than what I ordered?
Answer
When ordering Cuddle bolts, you may receive any amount between 10-13 yards on a bolt. When ordering half rolls of Cuddle, you may receive any amount between 25-30 yards. When ordering full rolls of Cuddle, you may receive any amount between 50-60 yards. Full rolls of faux furs are 25-30 yards. Half rolls of faux furs are 12-15 yards.
Full rolls of solid silky satins and embrace double gauze are 50-60 yards and bolt sizes for those items are 15-18 yards.
We always do our best to accommodate your wishes for the exact number of yards you order. However, we may not always be able to accommodate your request.
