So what do you do when you make something to sell with a licensed fabric? Are you not allowed to use that for anything except personal use? I have a lady that wants a bow tuck made from a particular fabric, but the selvages say "Licensed and all that stuff". So I wasn't sure if I could make the bag for her. I thought of telling her that I will sell her my card for 'dollars' and I will give her the bag it is attached to. Would that work?

You bought the fabric, so I would think that you can use it however you would like :wink:
The licensing is to let you know it is authentic and the copyright is to keep you from duplicating the fabric :D:D:D

I sell things at craft shows and will NOT use licensed fabrics...It is even stated on some of the contracts that I have to sign that I will not sell things that are licensed...
I don't know what to tell you to do...if you are only doing one, and it is for a friend(???) I don't think you would have a problem, but......

Some fabrics even have it written on the salvage that it is for personal use only. And that is even on some fabrics that aren't licensed!

Licensed fabric has a disclaimer on the edge :thumbdown: LOL

Couldn't you have her buy the fabric, and she pays you for your service?

Well, I already bought the fabric, but I guess I could have her pay me for that and then charge for the labor.
