I like to keep things simple & worry free as possible. Since I don't' offer my completed projects for any commetcial purposes, I can freely download or draft anything that pleases me. The is a lifetime of potential sewing/quilting patterns & ideas just waiting to be sewn.
That's plenty of projects for me to do without stealing someone' else's hard work as I don't profit from it. Or show it off in public places. The quilts and smaller projects are completely shielded from public view. Just for my personal home use only.
