Fabric swatches

Touch a fabric before you commit. One swatch book holds every color of one fabric, and books are paid with swatch credits — 20 credits are added once when your company information is complete.

Create a business account and submit the Company Information form for 20 credits. Choose a swatch book, then order sample or wholesale fabric. Credits earned on paid fabric orders can be used for your next swatch books and shipping.

How it works

1

Pick the fabrics

Add swatch books to your swatch cart from any item page. Each book covers every published color of that fabric, so one book shows the whole colorway range.

2

Pay in credits

The credit price of a book is set per item and shown on the item page — most are 1 to 3 credits — and shipping is 3 credits per swatch order. If your balance is short, checkout sells the missing credits at the fixed rate.

3

Order the same fabric

Once the book is in your hands, order sample yardage of the exact item from 1 yard, or wholesale at that item’s own minimum.

Frequently asked questions

What is a fabric swatch book?

A book of physical cuttings — one of every color of a single fabric — so you can check hand-feel, drape, weight and color accuracy before ordering yardage.

Are fabric swatches the same as fabric samples?

The words are used for the same thing: a small physical cutting of a fabric. On SWATCHON one swatch book covers every color of a fabric. Sample yardage is a different product — that is fabric by the yard, from 1 yard.

What does a swatch book cost?

Books are paid in swatch credits, not cash. The credit price is set per item and shown on the item page; most books are 1 to 3 credits. One credit converts at a fixed rate: $3.00, €2.75, £2.50, ¥500 or ₩5,000.

How do I get swatch credits?

Twenty credits are added once when your company information is complete. After that, credits accrue in proportion to the value of the fabric you order, so a buyer who keeps ordering fabric keeps receiving books. There is no monthly grant.

What does swatch shipping cost?

Three credits per swatch order, charged with the books. If your balance does not cover the books and the shipping together, checkout shows the shortfall and sells those credits at the fixed rate.

How long does swatch delivery take?

Estimated 3–5 days once the order is placed. The estimate is shown again in the cart, at checkout and on the order.

Can I order sample yardage instead of a swatch?

Yes. Every fabric can be ordered as sample yardage from 1 yard, and in wholesale quantities at that item’s own minimum — the same fabric either way.
