SEW CERTAIN
Trademarks & Attributions
Third-party names used in the app and on this website.
Independent educational reference
Sew Certain is an independent sewing and fabric reference. Brand, company and product names are used only to identify and describe materials, threads, machines and tools for educational and reference purposes. Their use does not imply any affiliation with, endorsement by, or sponsorship from their owners.
Sew Certain and the stacked-swatches logo identify this app. “Confidence in every stitch” is a separate tagline, not part of the logo. We do not present our name or logo with a registered-trademark symbol.
Third-party trademarks, service marks, certification marks, protected designations, company names, product names and brand names belong to their respective owners. The list below acknowledges names used in the app and on the Sew Certain website. Individual lesson pages also identify their sources; a source citation is not an endorsement.
Trademark symbols and capitalization follow the clearest current owner usage available to us, but registration and ownership can vary by country and can change. A name shown without ® or ™ is not being claimed as generic.
Generic fiber and construction names — for example lyocell, modal, cupro, viscose, rayon, spandex, elastane, ripstop, and ponte — are used in their ordinary, generic sense and are not claimed as trademarks.
Thread color matches are our own independent estimate, produced by comparing colors — we are not affiliated with any thread maker. Always confirm a match against the physical spool before buying.
