STOLES

How much is a standard stole?

A standard stole made from cotton/linen blend is $45.00 This includes - Your child’s first and middle name with a small cross underneath on one side, and the Sacrament (eg. Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist or Confirmation) date and symbol on the opposite side. Please see the Gallery.

Satin Stoles are an additional $15 - Total price for a Satin Stole is $60.

Additional charges apply if you add fringe/lace (+$5), extra name/surname (+$5). These options can be selected during your ordering process.

Please note - included on the stole under your child's name is the small cross as pictured. If you would like to add an alternative symbol, instead of the small cross, please contact me via email, as this incurs an additional cost (+$10).

All names will be horizontal unless specified.

I already have a stole from Nancy’s Creations and would like to add my child’s next Sacrament

If you have a stole that you have purchased from me, then you can choose any design from the “symbols and fonts” page and then follow the instructions below:

Adding to an existing stole
After you have chosen your symbol all you need to do is go to the shops page and select “Adding to your existing stole” Once you have completed and paid for your addition, the shop will generate an order number. Please write this number on a slip of paper with your name and phone number. Place this into ziplock bag with your stole and you can either drop it off at anytime in the drop box (large red box beside the front door) or pop it in the mail and post to -

Nancy’s Creations
23 Glendalough Court
Watsonia North VIC 3087

Please ensure you have removed any pins/badges etc… Nancy’s Creations will not be held responsible if they are lost or damaged.

I will let you know once the stole is complete and ready for pick-up/return post.

Adding to an existing stole costs $22 - this cost includes the sacrament (eg. Eucharist, Reconciliation etc..), date and symbol. (If you’re making more than one addition on the same stole at the same time, the initial cost will be $22, and then each addition thereafter is reduced to $20).

If you are looking to order a Stole and include previous sacraments you must select the stole for the current sacrament your child will be celebrating. You can then add the previous sacraments required. (eg. if your child is having their Reconciliation, and you would like to include Baptism details - then you must choose the “Reconciliation” Order form and once in this form you can add previous sacraments).

All Stoles are created with the names written Horizontal. If you would like your child’s name to be placed Vertically down one side of the stole, please write this in the “Special Instructions” box at the base of the order form.

How do I add to the stole my church/school has provided me? (this also applies to pre-purchased blank stoles).

Some churches and schools will provide a stole for your child’s sacrament, however, this does not mean that you must use this stole, even if it is printed with the church/school logo. It really is personal choice. Cost of adding to your own stole is $42 compared to purchasing a new stole which is $45.

If the stole provided is less than 10cm wide, I can still add to this, however, the name of the sacrament can not be included eg. the words Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation, as the stole is far too narrow for the words to fit. Only a symbol and date is included. Please click here to view the image. Also, please be very clear in the special instructions if you would like the name to be vertical.

PLEASE NOTE
- ALL NAMES WILL BE PLACED HORIZONTALLY ON THE FRONT OF THE STOLE
If you would like the name to be placed vertically, or around the collar, (or in a different colour etc) please be very clear in the "special instructions".

To add to your stole
Please visit the “symbols and fonts” page to make your selections. After you have chosen your symbol and fonts/colours all you need to do is go to the shop page and select “Adding to your existing stole” Once you have completed and paid for your addition, the shop will generate an order number. Please write this number on a slip of paper with your name and phone number. Place this into ziplock bag with your stole and you can either drop it off at anytime in the drop box (large red box beside the front door) or pop it in the mail and post to -

Cost breakdown of adding to an existing stole -
Adding to an existing stole costs $22 - this cost includes the sacrament - provided the stole is more than 10cm wide - (eg. Eucharist, Reconciliation etc..), date and symbol. (If you’re making more than one addition to the same stole at the same time, the initial cost will be $22, and then each addition thereafter is reduced to $20).

If the church has provided you with a blank stole, or you have previously purchased a stole, the price to add all details for one sacrament is $45. This will include child’s first and second name with a small cross underneath on one side, and the Sacrament details (eg. baptism) date and symbol on the opposite side.

I would like to add a different cross or symbol under my childs name

Please note - included on the stole under your child's name is the small cross as pictured. The cost of the stole is calculated using this smaller cross design. If you would like to add an alternative symbol, or larger cross, please contact me via email as additional charges will apply ($10).

How long does it take to make a stole?

Stoles, including bundles, generally take 4-6 business days to make. I can also make them urgently (next business day)

This does not include postage time which can take up to five business days (see below)

During school holidays only, if your stole is urgent, please call me to ensure that I am able to complete it in the required time.

What is the size of the stole?

Stoles are 145cm long and 10cm wide.

All embroidery work is fully enclosed and not seen.

Baptism stoles are made with an added pleat, making the stole slightly shorter, and enabling the size to be altered according to the child’s age and sacrament needs. This allows further symbols/dates to be added as required for Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation.

Can I see a proof of my stole?

Unfortunately, stoles are personalised and made to order and therefore, a proof is not possible.

Your order will look exactly as shown online - Sacrament (eg. Baptism, Eucharist etc..) Date and Symbol on one side, and two names with a small cross on the opposite side. The only change will be the relevant name/dates, according to your individual requirements, as well as any additions you may choose to make.

Do you make special orders?

Yes. If you don’t like the layout of the stole, draw a rough sketch of how you would like your stole to look and email it to me.

It is advised when drawing your custom made stole to choose symbols shown on the ‘symbols and fonts’ page, as this makes it easier to complete your order.

If you have a specific image that you would prefer, please send this to me. If I don’t have it on file then it can be digitised, at an additional charge.

Caring for your stole.

Stoles - whether Cotton/Linen Blend or Satin - can be given a gentle hand wash if required. If removing stains, please follow the instructions as stated on your stain remover product. It will not affect the embroidery work. Always give the stole a good press with steam iron. This will restore the stole to it’s original condition.

To finish, I have added top quality 100% cotton double edge binding for extra strength and durability.

Before making contact with me, please consider which size/style you would like, and checking the amount of clothing required. I am more than happy to double and even triple some of the squares on the quilt, providing the clothes are big enough. Due to time taken to make these heirloom quilts, clothing must only be sent after contact has been made. Please note -
