About Us

The Royal Mail Postage Charges have been increased on the 2nd April 2013. The Fat Quarters have looked at the prices of a variety of Couriers and Royal Mail still are the most competitive in most cases.

As a result we have reviewed our charges and have DECREASED postage on ALL patterns and a number of smaller items such as needles, stamps etc to £1.

The most anyone will pay in the UK is £2.25.
