The quilt photo thieves are back. In late 2018, online sellers began to pop up claiming to sell fandom and other quilts.
They are back. The image captured here comes up when you search for "harry potter bookcase quilt."
These quilt photos are STOLEN from our designers or community members. No doubt there are other fandoms and creators whose work has been stolen.
The first time this happened, we spent many hours sending emails and requesting these fake products be taken down. Almost none of them were. The Better Business Business Bureau got involved and those businesses were shut down.
Three years ago when this happened, we received angry mail from people who had spent money on what they thought were Harry Potter Bookcase quilts. They received NOTHING and we had to deal with the fallout. Please know that Fandom in Stitches and its designers do not sell fandom quilts or quilt-related projects. We do not sell fandom patterns. We don't sell photos of our work to use for reproduction. Our patterns are fan art created out of the love for our fandoms. All patterns shared on fandominstitches.com are free for personal & non-profit use only.
If you see ads online for Fandom quilts or quilts you KNOW were made by a creator, please report them if at all possible.
Thank you.
