:shock:

That is fair. I understand how they feel. I do like to see the pics, though.
|
I would think that we could take pictures outside venues, better than nothing i suppose?
|
I know it's fair and all but honestly to post a pic for others to enjoy, not for profit, how is that hurting the quilter or the show? Ugggg. Just rubs me the wrong way.
|
You could possible see those quilts again, as a pattern. They are just trying to protect their intellectual property.
|
A lot of the non winning quilts in the show are made from commercial patterns anyway. I saw dozens last year that read quilt made from the _________pattern by __________. They were stunning but not original.
|
I have a question. If people are so scared to death that some evil person will copy their quilt why on earth do they enter it into a CONTEST where it will be displayed in PUBLIC?
And then it most likely will be shown in a MAGAZINE that possibly will be distributed around the world. So what is the big deal about a picture? If you are that paranoid and worried about your "original design" keep it home to yourself. |
i'll bet there are photos available to view online after the show is over.
|
we can still take pics of other things. I was looking forward to taking some though. My first show, and I was all excited to share my experience.
