PLEASE stop posting this site...it is NOT the Holy Bible of Copyright law. and YES, people are sueing/being sued over the use of fabric to make items for sale that have this "not for commercial use" printed on the selvages.
I belong to several designer forums and it is really causing many issues in the industry.

LIke one lady said, she respects, the Copyrighted art, the logo's, the cartoon character's, etc, but when she found a bolt of a plain brown fabric with white polka dots on it, and it had that statement on the selvage, she drew the line....

the whole business is out of line and if we do NOT send a message to the Designers & Manufacturer's of the fabric that have that statement, then it will continue to grow and fester away at our guild raffle quilts, our baby charity quilts, you name it....it will always be a thorn, a dividing wall, etc....
