59617yours is great,
but like graceandham wrote, when you look on the internet many bags and designs are based on the piano keys.....and more designers are probably inspired by the subject.
So I hope you are not upset but proud of the ITH project you designed yourself.
740171I would be probably also sour, you know, only great things are copied, hugs Maria
20108I would be happy because u know you did such a great job they tried to copy you **My story lol
360401I say flattery. If not for capitalism we would live in a world of cooperation instead corporation.

I just saw one of my ideas in a design. I will alsways know that I did it first. and I did it using makeshift designs!
173580I am afraid that I would be a little upset. I think you were correct in writing to them. I hope you will get an answer
253107I'd call it flattery as that is healthier than upset. I commonly see copies or small variation in embroidery designs that reflect the orignal. The problem is that I usually have no idea who originated the design.
If you feel upset, you could buy the design and see if it is copied or different in some way. If you feel it was copied, you could ask her to remove it. Which them begs the question: How do you enforce compliance? Disney has a lot of attorneys who enforce their designs. Most of us don't.
So, I still would go with flattered and spare yourself the headache of enforcement.
33640Sorry, Sue. I've seen the keyboard idea repeatedly. Maybe just great minds think alike??
66505Be flattered. You know more about music.
109762Well, it is a zip purse featuring piano keys....but your's is much more detailed! Perhaps you inspired them.
313830I hope whoever it is is not receiving any compensation. I get cranky when I see all the designs on Etsy and Pinterest that have obviously been copied. It's not fair! Love Chris
