T^hank you. Now I know I do not have to change my will.
Thanks so much for your help. I have CD's of patterns I purchased that I no longer use and wanted to sell them but have been afraid to do so. Think I may be able to do that now. A flower for you.
Yea! It can now be put to bed for a few years, but will probably pop up again in a few years.....
This happened in the quilting world a few years ago and it was literally put to bed also....
For years I have designed quilts and made patterns and etc for quilting and taught quilting for over 25 years.....to me it is the best flattery a person can do, to copy a quilt or pattern I have designed or made, I have never copyrighted anything, cause God knows who did it first and this life is too short to quibble over trivial things....share and let us all have fun....The ONLY thing I asked anyone when they copied one of my patterns and taught it in a class was just to give me the credit in class and not pass it on as their original...
most have done this...if they don't why worry over it....Maybe they will come up with a better version...and yea for them.....where would we be if we had restricted the first mouse trap....where would that "best" mouse trap be today.....so let us now have some fun and enjoy our quilting and all of our embroidery machines and designs....and get back to collecting freebies.....
Amen!!!Helping someone is kind and good not helping is mean and hateful. A dollar just isn't worth the mean reputation.*4U.
Thank you...now maybe everyone can relax on the recent uproar. *4all! ~Rita
Thank you Karen and Mike we all appreciate this information.
Karen you are a woman to my heart. I have told my Cape Town Cutie friends exactly what you said above. Thank you. If I pay for something, its mine. The seller cant dictate to me what to do with it.So lets just celebrate life and put the nitty gritty to rest. I just love your kitties
