FAQ
Find answers about ordering, care and customizing your fabric.
How much does shipping cost?
Shipping depends on order size and destination, and samples ship free. Because fabric is printed to order, allow roughly three to four weeks for delivery — we confirm timing at checkout.
Can I return fabric?
Fabric is printed to order for you, so orders aren't returnable — order a swatch first to check the colour, weight and hand.
How much fabric do I need?
Supply your upholsterer or seamstress with the fabric width as well as pattern repeat so that they can advise you on how many metres are required. If you're doing a DIY project, email us with measurements and we'll help you calculate the quantity needed.
Do you offer bulk discounts?
For larger quantities or contract projects, contact us for project pricing — and designers can apply for trade pricing across the full range.
How do I care for fabric?
Each order ships with fabric-specific care guidance; fire-rated and high-durability options are available for commercial and high-traffic use.
Can I request a custom design?
Often, yes — many designs can be recoloured, rescaled or printed on grounds like linen or velvet. Email info@jamescrossing.ca with your brief.
