Fabric pattern layouts may vary, due to the cut of the material so images may not replicate the product pattern exactly. If you are in doubt, you should order a sample swatch from us.

2.8 If you receive any Goods that blatantly and obviously do not conform to those in our illustrations, photographs or descriptions, you may return those Goods to Us.

2.9 If We find, or are made aware of, any typographical, clerical or other accidental errors or omissions in any sales and marketing literature, price lists or any other documents We will make every reasonable effort to correct such errors or omissions as soon as is reasonably possible.  If, as a result of any such error or omission, you have received the wrong Goods, you may return those Goods to Us for non-compliance with the description.  If, as a result of any such error or omission, you have paid too much, We will refund the excess paid for the Goods.
