I know there are licensing rules concerning symbols, letters, etc. That's why I don't think I'll actually make any of these for sale, unfortunately...
You might forward your designs to HQ and ask about permission to sell it - all they could say is no.

That's a good idea. I was investigating SpoonFlower some more and it appears that the "owner" of the fabric gets a 10% commission on all sales of his/her fabric...so I'm guessing HQs are going to say no...but it's worth a shot.

Or maybe they'll ask for a cut - perhaps if you suggested a donation to their foundations for every sale. It's such a positive representation of the groups - I think licensing is mainly about controlling the "brand" - i.e. what sorority wants their letters on a thong? - so I'll cross my fingers. I need Gamma Phi fabric!

I'm pretty sure the first time I saw the ASA print, the link came from our HQ, so you never know. I think it was made by an ASA, though, so it might make a difference there, but it might not.
