Amy Butler, for one, is removing the restriction from all her fabrics in future printings. She mentions it in the FAQ on her website, along with being very clear in saying you can use her fabrics to make projects to sell or in the manufacturing of finished goods.

Well, here's a quick fix - stop buying licensed fabrics. Do they want folks to use their fabrics or not?

IMHO it means you can't sell it to a factory, however small, where they make it up into 1500 purses or whatever. But a lawyer with nothing to do might find a case against that. Do you think you can sell it at a garage after your kids have outgrown it?
|
does anyone write the manufacturer and express their opinion???
|
It has to be okay if it goes from my home to someone else's home with NO Store in between even if I get paid for making it.

What if you purchase the fabric and there's no selvage on it? This won't stand up in court. here's a little more info about this I don't know how to do the link where you can just click on it. www.tabberone.com/trademarks. I agree you'd think they'd be happy someone is showing their fabric in their book. Free advertising I'd say. They better be happy people are buying fabric with the economy what it is. Just my 2 cents.

Too funny my DH said the same thing about the fat quarters!! If you have no knowledge about it how can you honor it?

I don't KNOW any of the laws around this topic -
But I don't think Ignorance of the law gets one off the hook if one broke that law. Whatever it may be. Or how unreasonable it seems to be to an ordinary person. |
Smart lady.... hopefully we'll see this happening with other designer's.
