[Fabric Design] Monopoly on stripes!
I'm up late, but I just saw this in a fabric group I'm in, and I can't believe I just read through the petty drama, but I did.
There are many people who design fabric, get them printed, and sell them to crafters. It's not unusual for them to sell on Facebook in their own groups, posting designs, presales, etc.
One designer (Squiggles) posted in a larger group inquiring why another designer (Stripes) blocked and deleted her from a group after making an order. Apparently, there was previous drama that Stripes designed several fabrics....with stripes on them. Squiggles also designed fabric with stripes on them - different colors, and kinda squiggly because it was drawn on a tablet. From screenshots, someone had apparently told Squiggles that it appeared she was copying Stripes. Squiggles apologized to Stripes, but stayed Stripes' fabric group. When Squiggles made an order, Stripes realized she never deleted her, and blocked her. She also refunded her for the order...But not before the monopoly on stripes were posted all over a fabric group!
TLDR: Stripes makes striped fabric. Squiggles makes stripey squiggly fabric. Stripes furious! Stripes mine!
