If you don't want your originals to be copied you need to state that it is copy protected and apply for the copy wright and the copy symbal needs to be displayed plus you have to let them know how many years the copy wright is in force and terms of use. If you don't do this the image is fair game to anyone. I made a mistake a few years ago on some of my photography pictures and saw my images on cards on ebay! When you buy a quilting book that basically is paying for the copy wright.
