No, I didn't see the wording before purchase, but wasn't looking for it on a basic material...it wasn't even a named designer.

I have cut this fabric up and used it, and I sold everything that I had with that fabric in it, this weekend...

I'm sorry, but, I call the line at trademarking something like that...and I will NOT honor the "not for Commercial use" on something that is a nomal, everyday pattern.
