Copying another purposely is wrong..period. Unfortunately, some people just don't have basic ethics and don't think there is anything wrong with what they are doing. I guess you just can't convince those people that what they are doing is wrong
Like Connie said, of course some sellers will end up with the same fabrics and ribbons...some dress patterns are very similar. However, a seller should be trying to be UNIQUE..not trying to copy or make a very similar product. I have a few friends with dog clothing/bow businesses who have had problems of their own with others copying their designs...i just don't agree with copying to sell at all.
