What sort of materials do you use?
As a general rule, I use natural fabrics, most often cotton, though you may find some wool or silk thrown in quilt battings or appropriate garments. For cold weather jackets I also use non-pill fleece.

What is the sizing system?
The sizing of by Rosebud clothing is deliberately loose, allowing a longer period of wear for growing kids. Make every effort to purchase the correct size because, upon return, it's possible that I may no longer have the item in a different size. In such a case we can discuss whether I have an acceptable alternative or whether I can make something comparable.

Below are the measurements I use in constructing my garments. Keep in mind that because each item is handmade, these sizes may not be exact for every garment; they are close enough, however, given the generous construction of these garments.

How much will clothing shrink after washing?
Not at all. I machine wash and dry each item to prevent further shrinkage or color bleeding.

How do I care for my garment/item?
All by Rosebud products are machine washable and dryable. However, I recommend gentle cycles, cold water, and line drying to preserve the vivid fabric colors. In exigent circumstances, or cases of extreme laundry emergencies (which I know arise often with kids), you can throw them into the wash with a normal load. If your garment has delicate buttons, though, wrap them in aluminum foil to protect them.

Your items are one of a kind: what if I and someone else order the same item?
I will do my best to keep the site current, indicating which items have been sold and in which sizes. Other than that, it's essentially first come, first served. Of course, I understand the disappointment of not being able to purchase the item you wanted and am happy to work with you to find a good and satisfying alternative. Just shoot me an email.

How much is shipping?
Unless you live outside the U.S.--or need overnight shipping--shipping is included in the price of the item you purchase.

What is by Rosebud’s return policy?
I want you to be happy with your purchase, and, hopefully, to recommend my wares to friends and family. If you have a question or concern about your purchase, please contact me. Because these items are unique and handmade, I don't accept returns unless you need a different size (but see note above about one-of-a-kind items) or the garment has a material defect; such returns must occur within 30 days of receipt. I am happy to address any other problems that arise (and may they be few!) on a case-by-case basis.

Do you do custom work?
I am happy to do custom work, provided that my schedule will accomodate it.
