i wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who commented on the previous post & on instagram about the minakoko/lecien copy and giving their support. i have good news! i have been assured by lecien that the design in question will be taken off the shelves and website this week. so my emails were a success i am pleased to say. i didn't actually realise how much this was bumming me out until it was 'over', i honestly felt like a weight had been lifted. it effected my work mojo - which, in fairness hasn't exactly come back yet, but hopefully all services will be resumed shortly. first task: design new things and update my etsy shop!
PS...the image above has no relevance whatsoever - i just couldn't post without some colour!
Thats great news! It was pretty shocking...
ReplyDeleteI am so pleased for you and can fully understand how it could effect your mojo
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric you posted to 'add colour' today as I've been looking for inspiration on block printing some fabric for a Christmas present (though it will be monochrome) ;o)
I was thinking about you and this whole situation on my walk this morning ~ so glad to hear that it's been resolved!
ReplyDeleteVictory!
ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased to hear this, it restores a little faith in textile companies and reinforces the power of the online community!
ReplyDeleteThese news made me really happy they give a good lesson to those not respecting other people's creativeness.

P.S. I received your book today from Amazon and I just love it!
great news - I am so pleased they did the right thing (although, more than a little disappointed that I don't get to go all "Kill Bill" on them. My yellow leather boilersuit just doesn't get enough wear these days)
ReplyDeleteWoohoo!
ReplyDeleteThis is excellent news.
ReplyDeleteJustice!
ReplyDeleteFantastic news!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got all sorted. Keep going with all your lovely designs too��
