International Orders
Born To Quilt ships to most countries. Our shipping rates are
based on the value of the order before sale discounts, if any,
are applied – in other words, shipping is based on the total
of the regular prices. Because it is so difficult to determine
exact shipping costs based on an order total, the shipping charge
that is applied to your order at the time of checkout may be a
little higher than necessary. We will refund the difference to
your charge card if the shipping+handling costs are less than
anticipated. Also, if the costs are much more than anticipated,
we will e-mail for permission to charge an additional amount (although
this usually doesn't happen very often).

About our images
Born To Quilt is perhaps best known for large product images that
are clear, clean, and painstakingly reviewed for color accuracy.
There are some colors that are extremely difficult to color correct
due to limitations in technology – but we find our images
to be consistently among the best of the internet quilt sites.
