Free to Stitch, Free to Bitch!

I just came across this website and I implore all you stitchin' bitches to hustle over there and show your support!! Sew Fast, Sew Easy is NOT going to get away with its bully tactics forever. Add a banner, a button, or just tell a friend. BOYCOTT SEW FAST SEW EASY!!

If you need a little encouragement consider the following:

A list of offensive acts are as follows:

  • Disabling a large number (exact number pending) of online shops advertising various local knitting and crafting chapters by invoking CafePress's terms of service if the chapter made use of the term "Stitch and Bitch" or any variant of those three words. CafePress' terms of service enable CafePress to shut down these online shops on the basis of an allegation of trademark infringement that does not need to be proven in court.
  • Causing Yahoo! Groups to shut down or threaten to shut down a large number of mailing lists (exact number pending) if they made use of the term "Stitch and Bitch" or any variant of those three words. These small social groups of knitters and crafters depend on these mailing lists to communicate, and Sew Fast/Sew Easy Inc.'s actions have caused harm to these groups' unity, lost them the ability to communicate with possible members, and/or caused Yahoo! to delete valuable membership information.
  • Claiming they were the very first ever to coin the phrase "Stitch and Bitch" in 1997.
  • Deleting all negative opinions, however civilly worded, from their guestbook and online forum. Even more appalling, they have edited the very words posted by visitors directing interested parties to local knitting and crafting chapters. Any links provided with more information on these local knitting and crafting chapters have been changed without knowledge or permission of the poster to lead back to the company's own web site.
What they're doing is WRONG. They hold the copyright for "Stitch and Bitch Cafe" and NOTHING MORE. They have no ownership of the term Stitch and Bitch and they are claiming otherwise, forcing non profit knitting groups to change their names or face legal action.

This is wrong, so take a few moments and add a button! HELL NO WE WONT GO!!
