Hi Cory, let me tell you that I also glad that you came and posted your side of the story, I didn't now who the person was, then I saw it was, you, and I had a hard time believing that you will do, a well plan premeditated plan like this, but hey, I have been burn before for trusting people, I just don't think that was your primary motivation, to be honest, I can see the part or somenthing that start as a hobby can turn into a business, the only vendors that I purchased "clothes" have been from Des, ChleBella, and Jodi, I can't remember who else sorry. I have look in their websites and they all have cute clothes the dresses basically look all the same except for few designs, to be honest the only one that I can tell apart is Des-gofetch, and YorkieGeorge, yt vendors, but since I have three now, after awhile, it get kind of expensive buying three, so I went to waltmart and got me some dog patterns, it was so hard hubby had to help me lol. It get easy after you practice and practice, still haven't master the tape measurement, that well, but you know what? with $4.00 dollar the yard I can make my girls dresses, so I save a ton of money, I try to make it unique, but there so many ways you can make a dog dress. When I see a popular fabric I buy it, they are in the store for sell. I have people asking me to make them, and sell them, but I don't think, I'm good enough.
I also make bows for my girls and I have giving out to people, free, since a bow is a bow and I don't have to worry about fitting right.
I do think is wrong if someone, by a dress or harness etc, and rip it a apart and copy the particular design with a premeditated plan, of selling it or making a bussiness out of it. That motivation is just wrong in so many levels.
I'm a little confused though, because Cory, apparently is not only Connie but is also Yodi too,and don't remember who else, I thought that you two went to the meetup in L.A. Jodi, why not talk there face to face? about how you feel and said hey I think you coping my desings, excuseme it you guys did already. I just a little confused. I also thought you guys were friends.
Cory, Also Connie said that she received some clothes from you for free, but it look like Yodi's work, I'm sorry but if I think that, I would not put the dog clothes and send a picture either if I think you are going to put it in the web-site or not.
when you take a picture and send it, to a person or a vendor, who selling the product, I think is a kind of compliment, is like hey look how my girls look on your clothes/products what ever it is, jmho
You all vendors do a amazing job, and there is plenty of people to continue your business. Like Yen/
yorkiepuppie said a little competition is good.
I hope, I don't hurt and loose friends for posting this, I want to do it long time ago, when this happen with other two vendors, please don't hate me. This is somenthing that I have in my heart for so long time, Greta
PS:
QuickSilver love, love your post. I do hope they work this out too
