Here's a question....What if you make a quilt from this precious/exclusive fabric and you donate it or give as a gift and the reciever sells it in a craft show....then what, your charity or friend gets sued? GIVE ME A BREAK!
ENOUGH ALREADY. I will continue to purchase whatever I like, if I take my quilt to a craft sale, I will just ask for the payment to be a donation to a needy quilter. Has anyone actually seen the fabric design police at a craft show?
I also agree with the position, if a designer doesn't want her design to be cut, redesigned, sewn, ironed, starched, and made into something more beautiful than bolt fabric, then keep the design off the market....Oh yeah, the designers want to make a profit too, imagine that. Quilters ARE DESIGNERS! The fabric we buy is the raw material we use to "manufactuer" our designs. You don't see Swavarski crystal company, or fabric paint companies telling us we can't sell our quilts if we use their "designed" crystals and paint colors.....may be speaking too soon. Isn't this ridiculous......the insanity stops here. I will purchase, redesign and sell...so sue me. Stand up.
