    Has anyone here sold or are selling quilt patterns they have designed? How do you go about it? Do you sell just the pattern or do you sell it as a kit? Do you get it copywrited? and how is that done? Has it been worth all the trouble financially?
    Thanks for any info you have.

    That is something I have been working on. Right now, I have the patterns drawn, and working on the samples, the next step is submission, phew! I will let ya know how it works out.

    two names that pop in my head are danmar and lockeb. I would ask them in a pm and maybe they can give you the gritty details you want.

    Thanks for any info you have.
    You can go to "YouCanMakeThis.com" They have a quilting section and you can sell your patterns, if they are your design.
    Hope this helps you.
