Shipping and Processing Times

During the holidays, please allow extra time for delivery.  The carriers can not honor the 2-3 day USPS or 3-5 day UPS/FedEx delivery times while they have such an incredible influx of shipments.

We make every attempt to cut and ship within 1-4 business days from receiving payment for an order. We will contact you if there will be an unusually long delay, such as an item being on order. Some of our items will be cut at our retail stores and some will be cut at our warehouse, so some additional in-store transit time may be necessary, adding a few business days onto the processing. Please call us, or fill in the Contact Us Form, for available quantity if you are in a rush.  If you are paying by check, money order or using Paypal eCheck your order will reach our staff once payment is received.  

  • Processing time is separate from transit times - see below for transit times.
  • Standard Shipping RATE:  This is one of our many options.  You pay one low rate and Vogue Fabrics gets to choose how the package is shipped.  Please allow 7-10 business days for delivery.  Please click here for more details.
  • Express orders placed after 12:00 CT will be processed the following day. 
  • Refused and unclaimed packages will be handled as a return. As a result, you will be only be entitled to a refund minus the total shipping fees on both legs of the shipping process. As a result, the return shipping fees we incur will be deducted from the merchandise credit that will be issued.

Shipping Costs and Carriers:

  • Shipping charges are based on our negotiated rates with the US Postal Service and UPS/FedEx.
  • Shipping costs are based on shipping method, carrier, package weight, and zone which package is being delivered.
  • Use the Pull-Down menu to switch between US Postal Service and UPS.  Please explore both options for most cost effective choice.
  • If the order qualifies for our flat rate shipping charge it will show up in the USPS (Other carrier) choice, and carrier will be chosen by use at time of shipping.
  • Our checkout system uses a real time shipping calculator to determine shipping rates.
  • We do not add a handling charge.
  • Shipping time in transit is limited to business days only (Monday thru Friday). Shipping days do not include weekends or National holidays.
  • Please note:  The USPS Priority Option will state 2-day or 3-day.  This is mandated text from the US Postal Service and we can not change that.  It is their goal to deliver the package in that time frame, but they DO NOT guarantee delivery in that time frame.  That is also a transit time, and it does not include processing time.  IF YOU ARE IN A RUSH - please select UPS Next Day, UPS 2-Day Air or UPS 3 Day Select.

UPS Ground, FedEx HomeDelivery/Ground and USPS Priority Shipping:

  • Delivery times stated for Ground during checkout are approximate and are not guaranteed. Our shippers only guarantee expedited shipments.
  • We use both UPS Ground and US Postal Priority for our $6 Flat Rate Service.  Choosing USPS Priority or UPS Ground does not Hot Rush orders. Only Express Shipping orders are Hot Rushed.  All other orders have an average of 1-4 business days.
  • If you have provided an email address, you will receive email notification when you package is shipped out along with a tracking confirmation number.
  • Shipping is outside the realm of our control. We are not responsible for delays in shipping due to our shipping company, weekends or holidays.
  • We cannot guarantee ground delivery by a specific date. Posted delivery times in transit are estimates based on the most current information available. Environmental conditions, war, acts of god and a variety of circumstances can exist to make this unrealistic. 
  • If your order is needed on an exact date please choose an express shipping method or note the requirement when your order is placed (in the order notes section or by phone) and we will make every effort to deliver your order on the date you request.
  • Orders can also be picked up at one of our retail locations and shipping charges will be credited.

Express Shipping through UPS (Next Day Air, 2-Day Air and 3 Day Select) or FedEx:

  • If your item is in stock and we are able to process your order early enough in the day, we make every attempt to ship the same day for next Day and 2-Day Air packages. This is not a guarantee. 
  • We use 2 different fulfillment centers, and our package pick-up comes fairly early, we ask that you please call 800-433-4313 to verify whether the item you want is in-stock and whether we can get it out that same day. Otherwise, the item will ship out the next business day.
