    Our maine quilt chapter mailed out a letter telling us any quilts being admitted into our next state quilt show has to have approval from original owner/company of your quilt design. I would think this would start to eliminate a lot of people's quilt entries that do not want to bother with this next step. What do you think?

    I agree.

    If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then making another's quilt pattern to enter into a quilt competition is the ultimate compliment. What do they want from it--Money? Didn't you already buy the pattern?

    If you can get the owner/company to respond. I have asked permission from several pattern designers (when I can a valid contact info) for certain things and waited for weeks and never got a reply. And most of these designers with a website and are usually in all the magazines. If they are too busy to reply then I'm too busy to inquire.
