Fabric bolts are double-folded continuous pieces of fabric that are rolled onto themselves, without any cardboard in between (we try our best to save the environment in every way possible including by using less cardboard).

Fabric rolls are continuous pieces of fabric rolled on a 2" or 3" cardboard core.

We offer unopened rolls direct from the factory. These fabrics are measured on equipment that stretches the fabric, therefore there may be a +/- 10% variation comparing to the loose yardage measurements. 
Discounted pricing on wholesale fabrics reflects this +/- 10% variation.

Some rolls or bolts may contain sampling holes for quality control tests or fabric markings and the usable yardage is considered at least 90%.This is especially applicable to natural fiber fabrics where more sampling/checking is required due to the nature of the fiber being used. 
Discounted pricing on wholesale fabrics reflects this +/- 10% variation.

Some rolls or bolts may also contain seams where two ends of fabric are sewn together. This is very normal and we always give extra yardage for seam allowance.

Fabrics bolts are less expensive to ship than fabric rolls. If available, consider buying a bolt to save on shipping costs. Fabric rolls are more expensive to ship due to the oversize length of fabrics and dimensional weight.

Due to shipping package size restrictions on orders shipping to Canada or internationally, some fabric rolls may have to ship as a double folded bolt. If you have any questions regarding the purchasing of fabric rolls or bolts of fabric, please contact us prior to placing the order.
