I was just on todays post and some on brought up the conversation about sharing patterns and how it is not legal to do this. This is a web sight on copy right and laws explaining very simply for any one to understand.It isn't lengthly.

The link took me to a page that said: We're sorry but the page you are seeking does not exist.

I got the same message so are we allowed to share pattern ? If we don't charge??

So did I. What is the verdict about sharing patterns?

Last summer McCall mag ran an article written by a quilting lawyer that really raised a stink, big time. She stated you could use a pattern only for yourself, if entered in a quilt show must get permission from author, couldn't sell the pattern or the quilt made from it even at a garage sale etc. it was a 2 page article but my guild discussed it in length and most of it was way beyond what any quilter would want to do with a quilt. I didn't believe half of it applied to me and my quilting. personnally I can probably duplicate any quilt pattern or picture in a magazine just by doing a paper graph of it. If your professional and enter quilts in shows (not your local guild show) it would probably be a different story MHO
